I am not certain who Jacob and his Nemesis represent, but it would seem that their feud has been playing out for some time over the course of history. I am not opposed to the aspect of time, and a time loop at play that could involve characters we already know. I think Jacob using the wheel in the opening scene was a definite shout out to the 'time loop' aspect. It was symbolic.

Who cares, right? Okay....for whatever it's worth, and this might be an eye roll for all of you out there who think it's obvious, but, I say the explosion is the reason the statue was all but destroyed, and that possibly, the MRI like magnetic thingamjig is what downed the plane. And of course Blondie survived the fall so she could set off the bomb. What a bummer, eh? Falling all that way and waking up!!! She was pissed. There are way too many story lines to keep track of and clearly, when the writers began this task four years ago, they could never have forseen all the story lines having a conclusion, so many have been dropped. Many people have "poof!" disappeared and I think trying to explain all of this is doing one of two things a) giving everyone at ABC something to laugh about b) giving the writers ideas that they themselves haven't thought of yet! Can anyone say "class action" on copyright infringement? (KIDDING for anyone thinking i"m not) I am among the many with waaaaaaaaaaay too much time on my hands….my brother and sister in law got me hooked on Lost last year, when then loaned me the series set.

Also the name translates to a few things including Pregnancy, which could link to the fertility statue, and One Of Light...which also has alot of connotations within the series....its worth a read, see what you make of it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aaron Ok I have some interesting ideas….if you look up Aaron on wikipedia not from a lost perspective, He was the brother of moses (Links in with the mysterious adversary that some believe to be called moses due to his reaction when Ben uses that phrase with Jacob) Also a biblical jacob is listed as being his grandfather.

i think the fact that claire MUST raise aaron points more 2 him being the rival and the fact that christian drew claire away from miles and sawyer

but would this mean the losties would have 2 kill a child??? unlikly
or would it mean kate/claire having 2 kill him as a man
i do think claire is still alive though as killing her off in such an unclear way is not the way the writers work

great theory!!

Something perhaps occurs during the various twisted timelines due to Claire NOT raising Aaron/Jacob. Leading on from that...say for arguments sake the bomb DID go off in 1977, and the plane didn't crash, Claire may well bring up Aaron/ Jacob, and all the mess on the island/time - space/wider world, may not occur. Of course this is Lost!, and it gets waaay complicated, but somehow I think that Jacob can skip through time, and see people in the past who HE KNOWS is on the island. Jack himself says in regards to the bomb "this is what were meant to do" or something along those lines, Christian also said something like "Aaron is not supposed to be here" etc. Anyhow, I've gone off on a tangent, and probably lost my own plot in the process ;P but it's my first post, so hi!

Could be. Like you said the time frames don't add up since old no name looks much older then jacob. but other than that it seems preaty solid. but only time will tell. hmmmm very intresting.
