Piggy is logical and intellectual. He is the first child to question the idea that anybody is actually looking for them,

They're all dead, an' this is an island. Nobody don't know we're here.

Piggy's adult logic is often met with scorn by the other boys . He clings to adult ideas like order and equality.
