Awesome post 'Tine! I've read a couple times now trying to put things together.

On a different note, I can't post on here but Justin and I were just wiki'ing John Locke (yes we do these things) and saw this interesting sentence I wanted to share;

"Locke's theory of mind is often cited as the origin for modern conceptions of identity and "the self", figuring prominently in the later works of philosophers such as David Hume, Jean-Jacques Rousseau"

Dang lady! Is that what you did on your summer vacation?! That was top notch! All that mythology fits rather neatly with the show. I don't know why, but I think Jacob is a good guy. Maybe it was his laid-back, all-knowing attitude? So, needless to say, I like to hear that he is the repairer of evil.

As far as the red herring goes, I think it could also be that Jacob is the red herring, all this time we've been dying to know who Jacob is and all about him when the real focus is going to be on "Esau" (which, if he is smokey or controlling smokey, that's huge news!). As much as they've driven story lines into Jacob as the mysterious head of it all, and then they introduce us to him and off him all in the same (albeit 2-part) episode? Smells fishy… like red herring!

WOW Christie KILLER post~! You got some great info going on there. I really think you are onto something.

Just for the record I was never quick to assume that Jacob was good, that just seems to easy. We know with LOST there is always something more than what it seems…

Thanks for posting. So now I need to go digest this all…
