Maybe the black rock didn't see the island at breakfast. Maybe it was hidden somehow and only when they got close enough during the storm did they see it.
then the black rock would be the biggest fricking boat in history that it could be spotted with the naked eye from a rather large island yet was still to far away to see said island

we should start listing the stuff we know for sure instead of theorizing on stuff we don't know lol

for the MIB to be proved wrong, the 6 that were brought to the island as canidates will have to continue to perform the good deeds that they do in the alternate timeline until the two realities converge.
you just blew my mind. Wow so whether or not Sawyer goes after Cooper in his Cop timeline may effect the outcome of his fate on the island and the same for the others?

I have said since last season that if Jacob and MIB represent God and Satan (and at some level they do), then Richard is symbolic of the Holy Spirit. He is Jacob's presence on the Island that can give advice but cannot alter free will and can't make anybody do anything.
The Catholic symbolism in the show has been a theme since day 1. Charlie, Mr. Eko, Hurley's family, Richard, and even Locke's dad have all been shown to be (devout) Catholics. To my knowledge, Sayid is the only non-Catholic religion to be introduced.

my conundrum:
-Jacob doesnt influence others, doesnt believe in it
-Jacob "brings" people to the island
-815 crashed b/c Desmond didnt push the button
-Desmond did that b/c he went stir crazy
-Who/what influenced Desmond?

Jacob doesn't represent God, he was killed. And besides the actor that plays Jacob said that there was a higher power than him in an interview.

Other than being a substitute for Christian, there was apparently no need to bring John's body back to the island. They've made it clearer that the MIB can transform into people not on the island. With that said, any random cadaver could have been packed on the plane in Christian's clothes.
I'm not sure if the Others would buy John Locke just showing back up out of the blue. Something like a plane crash and he being on it they would believe.

AWESOME episode.
Really set the rest of the season up in a solid manner.
I really enjoyed seeing the MiB actor back in the show, he does an amazing job.
However, all I can think about now is how the whispers play into Jacob's game. God I hope they delve into that.

at least they answered some questions.

what were you expecting?
to say it was horse crap confuses me
you are free to have an opinion but i find it troubling that you found this, possibly the best episode of lost ever, as a bad episode.
If lost has lost you, then why do you watch, why waste anymore of your precious time, that you could spend looking up pointless wikis? just stop watching.

yeah, I got that
Jacob brought Desmond to Cork Island, cool
but if he has a policy of non-inteferment, all the events that led up that day to Desmond not pushing the button would seem to be more of a MIB move than a Jacob move

Jacob doesn't represent God
One way or another Jacob is a "God-like" figure. I am not saying that Jacob and MIB are God and Satan but they certainly symbolize them.
Jacob's parallel with God/Jesus. He is the anti-Satan. He allows free will and expects people to act right. The season finale with Ben killing him and Jacob not stopping him was straight biblical symbolism.

Wish I could fully take credit for that theory but I found it somewhere else.

i dont understand how jacob is perfectly content being on the island. if you think about it, he is serving the same punishment as MIB. they are both stuck on the island forever. Maybe thats why Jacob was always looking for a replacement, so he could finally leave.
