i would agree about the fear part, they feared the beast and wanted meat, jack was the hunter/provider and gave a sense of security from outside fears, then he used fear though to control the group, to differ from jack was a big no-no.the Sociaty(s) of the boys on the island seemed to change, from a democratic one to more of a dictatorship.

i've not sure about the distiction between natural, subjective and relative, arn't relative and subjective about the same thing?

i need to finish the communist manifesto i'm about 1/4 or 1/3 way though the book, already read the actual part containing the manifesto just not the additional added stuff after it, also i have dragonLance annoted legends and my sherlock holmes to read, school/work though is a pain and keeps me busyish, i think i would spend my entire pay check at barnes and nobles if i didn't have some inhibitors stoping me.
