Seriously, Lost may be complex, but people try to make it so complex that you need a PHD in philosophy to understand it. The end of the show will be simple, not mind-numbingly complex. Ab Aeterno is a prime example of simple answers usually being correct.

Much of this thread's discussion centers around clarification of older episodes based upon clearer answers.

If Jacob can bring people to the Island... would it be wrong to assume he can send them elsewhere as well?
Tom seemed to go pretty quickly to and from the Island to make sure Michael got on the freighter, so yeah I think the other mode of transportation off the Island is pretty quick and instantaneous.

Jacob dropped a bomb shell with his explanation of the island, and people are basically saying he's lieing "just because" 
I am just chalking it up to people being bored at work with nothing else to do but to think of shite that logically just doesn't fit or make sense.

Yeah, I don't think Jacob has lied ever. He's cryptic to be sure, but he's not going to lie to you. MIB has done nothing but lie for 5 straight seasons, and while he may be more honest now, he's certainly lying about a lot of stuff.

if you say so
you have had some solid posts along with oml, but for the most part it's a bunch of nonsense.

Oooh good question. Did they not know that our Losties were brought to the island and included some future candidates? It seems like if they knew that some of them were candidates, they wouldn't have had such an antisocial/hostile attitude towards them.
The Others didn't know that Jack, Hurley, Sayid, etc. were candidates until the beginning of this season when Dogan received Jacob's list via Hurley and the guitar case.

I think what Jacob said was true, it just makes him either:
1. An Idiot
2. Partially Evil / Uncaring
3. Or someone who has yet to explain his true motivations

you missed all of the post about how it's just a game between mib and jacob and that it doesn't involve good or evil? for frick's sake, the entire premise of the show is pointing to that - ben being forgiven instantly despite his terrible history, jack finally starting to have "faith" and jacob's analogy of the wine glass.
this thread is littered with people trying to disprove that simply because it's not what they want to see.

I think this is more simple then people want to believe
ive seen some people not on this thread but in other places that say MIB is good and Jacob is evil.
I think its pretty clear what the case is
Jacob is good (he where's white doesn't get involved in violence that much (richard fight doesn't count he was defending himself didn't kill richard)
MIB is evil (he where's black, kill people like its part of his job, clearly manipulates people to get him to do what he needs done, like richard ben and others)

Your first statement was...
Then I say I must have missed that and you reply...
"Just because" is not the same as "it's a game between MIB and Jacob." I honestly don't remember seeing anyone who said it was a game saying that it didn't have anything to do with good vs. evil. The fact is that it being a "game" and it being about "good and evil" are NOT mutually exclusive. Both could be true at this point and Jacob still wouldn't be lying.

You do realize you're retarded, right?
You could at least try to understand what I was saying before you completely bastardize the theory.

I must admit. I love their little easter eggs.

i wasn't bashing your theory...i actually liked it though i don't think it's going to turn out that way.
i'm just saying that people are taking things that have no significance whatsoever and trying to spin them in all sorts of different directions. i didn't say that you were one of them.

No, you just completely miscited it.

I've been the largest proponent of the game theory. You post specifically cited the game theory.

Well when you have a man(Jacob) who brings people to an Island in which many of them die and the only known reason is to prove a point.. you will sometimes be labeled as a bad guy.
Which begs the question.. Does Jacob need these people to come to the Island to help him keep MIB from escaping? If not then why does he do it? other than for his own satisifaction to try and prove an "evil" man wrong.. Whats the Point?

This is why I posted the Jacob "Trilemma"
He is either:
1. An Idiot
2. Uncaring
3. Someone who has not fully revealed his true motivation
