Simon was trying to make the point that the real beast might simply be themselves and the way they were behaving. He knew that it made no sense for their to be a real dangerous creature on the island. Nobody had been killed or injured by the 'beast' it left no tracks, it simply didn't exist except in their imaginations. But a boy had been killed through their negligence. Jack had put the importance of killing pigs above their chance of being rescued and he had physically assaulted Piggy and broken his glasses. The very real danger to boys on the island came from the boys themselves. That was what Simon was trying to say at the meeting.
