Claire’s son is Aaron. Charlie is Desmond’s son. Is Daniel really Penny’s nephew?

1. We know that Christian was in the South Pacific in the late 1970s, because he impregnated Clair’s Australian mother.

2. We know that John Locke was brought back to life (or at least reanimated by smokey).

3. We know that Christian, like John Locke, was last seen in the “current” time with the 316 survivors… and he hasn’t shown up in 1977 yet has he?

4. We know that Jack is special for some reason, even though he has been in the background lately. We also know that Claire and her son Charlie were also very important… which follows the theme of Miles being the son of Peirre, Penny being the daughter of Widmore, and Daniel being the son of Ellie (Penny’s brother?).

Makes sense Christian lost leadership for having children off the island. Maybe that’s why Ben TOOK Alex; so he’d never have the desire to have a child of his own?

It would also explain why Claire was told to raise her own child, and if she did not the psychic would set up an adoption for her. It was a way to keep track of the bloodline and/or to make sure she did or did not become a leader in DI because she has a child.

Something else I haven’t seen discussed on this site that I’ve thought of… The psychic tells Claire, “Your child should not be raised by another.” Could be interpreted as, “Your child should not be raised by AN OTHER.”!!

Thoughts or comments?

I”m still of the mind that Christian’s only real importance comes from him being a body from Oceanic 815.

Nice observations, I do not remember a thing about Christian & his dad Ray, Thats all new to me but it seems like everyone has ties to the Island.

I liked that Locke has to walk in Christians Shoes, Good reference, I believe we will see Christian as the other surgeon that was away at a station.(I think the looking glass not sure though??)

Not my theory but I like it, An maybe we will see Christian Pushing the “FDW” An adding another similarity between Locke & Christian.

Everyone goes stark staring mad when they get to that god forsaken island.To maintain MY sanity i decided long ago that hallucinations, induced by high levels of electro-magnetism,is what everyone is experiencing,on and around the island/s.Ben’s been driven completely mad by it,and it gets to everyone in the end.Locke is DEAD.The power of suggestion is whats keeping his memory alive in the minds of everyone there.Remember when ben took locke to see jacob in the 4th season,locke did’nt see jacob at first because he just did’nt believe what ben had told him.But ben finally got into locke’s head and it hit him.Everyone is a possible victim.It seems ben know’s what to say to people to make them see what he wants them to see.either that or people are’nt that nasty exept for ben.I expect anyone could do it.Its just the power of suggestion and the fact that ben never really grew up.He’s a nasty, dishonest little bastard.

I like that you brought this up. It is an interesting conversation waiting to happen. Eloise knows lots of things that she wouldn’t know unless she’s an authority on how things are supposed to be. However, she only said that he had to recreate the coffin situation, so she is only admitting that she knows Jack’s dead father is on the flight.

Wat are you sayin. Cristian is a dead guy, and nothing else. Smoke monster obsessed his body to get to Jacks mind. Smoke monster has its own plan. Jack is somehow connected with that plan. But the question is, why it didnt killed Ben. Did he took the picture at the begining of the episode just to always think about Alex, because Smoke monster can read our thoughts. He tricked the smoke monster. So that clarified that he is more dangerous than Charles widmore is.
