Something tells me its going to be very anti-climatic, simple, and a lot less cerebral than we are all making it out to be. Have any theories on Gov conspiracy? Maybe it was all planned? I know, I know how does this explain Jacob, smokey, etc...I know maybe we are past that now but I just have a feeling I am going to end up feeling the complete opposite of wowed after the last episode.

I tried to translate some of the ruins in the temple the other day but cant make sense of them. one line says lady stand/mast sun. then on two ther lines there is the symbol that translates to a swimming pool but as not been an egyptologist I dont have a clue what the symbols together mean lol. I believe the place originated in egypt for sure as that seems to be the oldest thing on the island. ie temple and smokeys home. I also thought that smokey could be a dead egyptian evil god and is locked away in a tomb (just like in the mummy) and the smokey presence is his soul. I do think its getting a little late in the game to be holding back this type of information though so I'm not sure...I believe we will find out more about the island within the next 2-3 episodes as it would make sense that the losties will be told or find out when Locke turns up and is really smokey. Im not sure what to think anymore and am just going to watch the show and see what happens.....theorising this late in the game is tiring....I always wanted to find out the answer myself before it happens but you will never know until it does. Im happy with the theorys I have made and will be surprised if not one of them comes true. my dad however, bless him, rekons that in the last episode Locke or Jack will wake up on the plane holding a book on ancient egypt and it was all a dream....i've tried to argue the point that it will never happen but he wont have any of it lol.....although the producers stated they always knew how it would end....from the first episode how many different ways could it end really? I suppose what it comes down to is anything can happen it is a show and everyone always argue on peoples theorys that things couldn't happen because it wouldn't in real life.....im sorry but does that mean smokey could really exist? this is a show not real life and ANYTHING can happen if they want it too. Just like the ending of sopranos where everyone went mad because it was just a blank screen at the end and that was it. the producers were basically sticking one up to their audience because they could now the show was over.....i wouldn't be surprised if Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof did the same thing. Once the shows over its over. Doing this will also make the most amazing show of the century also the most talked about. Job done on their behalf. Dont get me wrong I hope this doesn't happen but there are a lot of unanswered questions that they need to answer.....if we dont at least find out about Sayid, Claire and Christian in the next episode then I think we are all being played. katie – this was one of my first theorys on this site last year…..I was sure that the island was Atlantis and I followed its history back and read up loads but since there has been no reference to this been the case I gave up on it as a no hoper.

All the signs are there. I was reading up on Atlantis and Plato wrote that the Egyptians knew about this island, and in fact that the Atlanteans had invaded and captured land around Egypt. Also, that the Atlanteans took its prisoners and used them as slaves. I really feel like some kind of Egypt-Atlantis connection is there somewhere.

Ive read a lot about buddhism etc, nothing to do with lost just for reading and the only person on that island that may come close is perhaps Jacob? Although trying to change the way things are certainly doesnt sound to buddhist to me. Im not bagging your theory just sharing my thoughts on it. I just wanted to point out that they have referenced a number of real important/famous people through the show i know Jeremy Bentham is one (lockes alter ego off island) and i cant think of the others off the top of my head, but theres a few perhaps dogen is just another way to bring in another famous persons name the way they kind of do that.

But seeing as Carlton Cuse is a self proclaimed born-again Christian, and Damon Lindelof is Jewish, is think it is unlikely that they would base the entire show on Buddhist philosophy... they'll reference it here an there no doubt, but they won't base the whole show on it...
