Some people who did not like Simon Birch were: his own parents because they simply did not know what to make of him, and his pastor at church because he did not like that Simon seemed to think he knew what God would think is acceptable of the church and he openly criticized what the pastor organized and suggested.
Ralph thinks Simon is batty. In reality, Simon is not batty, he just thinks much more about certain things that ordinary boys simply do not think about. e.g The Beast being inside us. This does not make him batty. Simon also has a tendancy to faint, which make the boys think her is 'sick'. Hope i helped :)
Simon appears to be an epileptic and perhaps as a result of avoiding people, so that they don't witness him having an epileptic fugue. Simon has become rather solitary and secretive. So, it is hardly unexpected that when confronted with the prospect of speaking publicly to a rather hostile audience he becomes incoherent and inarticulate.
