D-Day Journal

    

     I think that William Golding was affected by being a part of D-Day because even though he survived now he had to live knowing the fact that all of those other people died. Even though he really couldn’t do anything to save him the memories of what had happened will always stick with him. Golding questioned the goodness of mankind because if mankind was good then why would people want to go out and kill one another. If mankind was good then there would be no reason to go out and destroy people's lives. Even though they were doing it for their country if there weren't any problems to begin with then no one would have to worry about their loved ones going to war and possibly not coming back.

 

     I believe that man is born with goodness. I don’t think that man is born selfish. I do believe that man can learn to be barbaric and evil. I believe this because, I think  that God created every person with a good heart but I just think that it’s the things that they chose to do and the way that  they chose to act or maybe what they might have been through in the past that can make then negative. I don’t think that people who go join the army are negative or were born cruel or anything I just think that they join the army because of the story behind it and they just want to fight for their country and for what they believe in.
