I don't think jacob is god for the simple reason that jacob can be replaced by one of the Losties.Originally Posted by KingofIlladelph
If they stick with this "the island is hell" thing, it makes a whole lot of sense.
Jacob is God thus why he can go anywhere he wants. Notice he is always a presence amongst the Losties but never when they necessarily want answers or need him. But he always remains a presence. And good things don't always happen just because he's there even though he is good (The presence of God yet babies are murdered, raped, etc). Like when Richard went to him and got "baptized", notice how he said he couldn't bring his wife back (because God doesn't bring people back), but he could grant him everlasting life (free will/salvation).
MIB is the devil, he can't leave Hell (the island) because God keeps him there (like the original story), but the devil can still influence people. Same way God can influence people. Notice how they're always recruiting people. Same way people are influenced by the good and evil (god and the devil) everyday. And the devil is supposed to have many forms (ie Flocke, MIB, etc.)
Ben was a zealot, believing in Jacob even though he had never seen him. Even going so far as to tell the others that he spoke to him (kinda like a lot of religions with so called prophets claiming to have spoke to God). Then when he finally met him he said you never spoke to me (kind of a losing his religion moment).
I kinda believe that maybe thats why the show is called Lost, representing lost souls deciding which way they are going to go.
This is all random thoughts spewed out, so don't take it as something concrete. Just my .02.
Dogen wanted sayid to try and kill Flocke hoping that Flocke would kill him. Dogen knew sayid couldn't kill Flocke w/ the knife, he even says so when sayid comes back alive.Originally Posted by gottagitdemjs
I've got another bone to pick with the plot. Dogen and the MIB each gave a human the "excaliber dagger" (my name for it) with a special rule that you must stab the deity of choice prior to them speaking to actually kill them....however; Ben and Jacob reminisced about old times prior to Ben stabbing him with a normal everyday buck knife. I don't get it.
nah i think its pretty clear from last night that jacob is good. And are we really sure they are Jacob's numbers? I mean unless im mistaken Flocke told Sawyer they were Jacobs. And everything that is coming out of Flocke's mouth is BS.Originally Posted by franchise3
Ok I read this somewhere else, maybe cut and pasted from some article, I dunno, but in summary:
We learned tonight the island is to keep BSG/evil from spreading. Hurley's numbers came from the island. As a result, as we know, it caused havoc to Hurley's loved ones. A minor example of what could happen if the evil leaves the island? But aren't those numbers Jacob's? Maybe Jacob is the one that's evil?
Desmond/Penny no contest. I like Richard and I loved this episode, but The Constant is still the best LOST episode ever. Plus, Isabella was dead so I don't think that should countOriginally Posted by franchise3

Yeah, I agree. The question of who is really good or evil is still open. Plus, it seems too early to explain the sides. There's got to be some twist still to come.Originally Posted by SunDOOBIE

Awesome episode indeed because it revealed a lot but I am sorry I had towhen Jacob said he wanted people to know the difference between right and wrong without being told. BS.
That's why the Others kidnapped children including Walt? Did experiments on Claire and Karl? That's why the Others killed passengers in the tail section of the plane. That's why Richard told Ben to kill his father and everyone in the DHARMA Initiative? What part of good is all that?
If anything that just PROVES MIB is correct that everyone brought to the island "would only end in fighting, destruction and corruption as it always had" Since season 1, isn't that the truth?
