"Which is better - to have rules and agree, or to hunt and kill?"*1 pointJackRalphLord of the FliesPiggySimon

The question you're asking is a thematic element from the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding. The characters you've mentioned are all from this novel.

The question is subjective and depends on the perspective of the person answering.

From Ralph's perspective, it's better to have rules and agree. Ralph is the character who believes in order and civilization. He tries to establish rules and maintain a signal fire to increase their chances of being rescued.

From Jack's perspective, it's better to hunt and kill. Jack represents savagery and the desire for power. He becomes obsessed with hunting and is the one who leads the boys into savagery.

Piggy and Simon, on the other hand, represent different aspects of civilization and morality, but they both would likely agree with Ralph's perspective over Jack's.

In the context of the novel, Golding seems to suggest that the balance between these two instincts - the instinct to live by rules, act peacefully, follow moral commands, and value the good of the group against the instinct to gratify one’s immediate desires, act violently to obtain supremacy over others, and enforce one’s will - determines the outcomes of a society or group.
