In the book, the conflict of good vs. evil is represented between Ralph and Jack. Jack and his tribe became savages, and only care about hunting and killing, and they represent the evil in people. On the other hand, Ralph represents the good in people, and he tries to keep a civilized society and do whats necesary to be able to survive and get rescued. I think the message is that every person has some bad and some good in them, but they have the power to choose which one to be.

Shows how the civilized lifes of prep student boys are changed drastically under certain measures, they turned into murdering savages and he provieds us with a terrific story, now thats an answer-cheesehead
In LOTF, William Golding displays many conflicts between good and evil. There is a struggle between savagery and civilization.
