There simply has to be some significance and connection why 'killing your father' is some sort of criteria, in order to become the leader of 'the others'. I don't see Jacob as being 'human', in the traditional sense. I think he is representative of a deity, that takes on human form via many people. That is not to say, that he has not, over the course of time, ever been in human form. As for Jacob being ONE person, I think he has been many people. Nice thoughts! smokey_, I really like this theory!

As for Jacob being ONE person, I think he has been many people.

Nice thoughts!

I'm not going to claim to be able to answer that, but maybe Hurley and Ben's father become somewhat of friends in the DI or maybe because Ben's father wasn't exactly mentally stable he feels connected to Hurley enough to show himself to him. Who knows... Good question about Hurley A.E.S.

I like it, I would just take it a step further maybe. He would take the form of something meaningful to the person seeing him. Eko saw Yemi, young Ben..his mother. I get it, I think. I just have to wonder. What would be the idea of Hurley locating the cabin, if Jacob is in regards to the leaders father. Im not disagreeing, just have a few questions...
