Piggy tries to justify Simon's death, as well as his own part in the tragedy. He blames Simon's own crazy behavior for the event and claims he participated because he was afraid not to.

Ralph doesn't take the easy way out.... he justifies nothing, feels the guilt, and regrets the part he had in his friend's death.
