It just seems to me that the Others and their pure faith approach to everything isn’t really working out too well… the Dharma Initiative, if you really look at them, really seemed to have their stuff together much better since it seems that they acted with knowledge.

Yeah, I think that some of the commands the Others followed were from Jacob and some were not… I believe that Ben killed his father with poison gas because he believed it was what he was supposed to do but really it was just MIB tricking him. After that was done I believe it was MIB that killed the DI (not the Others). Kind of in the same way that we thought all along that MIB couldn’t kill Jacob but seemed totally free to do so after Ben stabbed him.

I don’t think the Degroots plan to take over from the others, i think the battle will be over ‘the event’ thats coming, one side who want to change/prevent it, and the other who believe it should/is supposed to happen

Highbrow,

It seems you and i agree on some stuff.
You mention ‘the purge’ as the first time MIB tricked Ben to kill people?
So you agree that its possible some or alot of ‘Jacobs’ commands were actually MIBs?

i definitely agree that Dharmas overall involvement will be much bigger than we thought, And i agree that there will be some connection between Jacob and Dharma, and its part of a grand theory i’m piecing together, i don’t think Jacob is as mystical as we’ve been led to believe. I also think that Smokie/MIB may have been the ‘god-like’ figure that the others praised originally (maybe an Egyptian thing), until Dharma and Jacob got involved.

I think our views of the show are shaping up to be quite similar.

The war between science and faith is coming.

I don’t know who is coming but for some reason Jefferson Airplane/Starship lyrics keep going thru my head.
Go ask Wallace, I think he’ll know…………

It would be sad not to get some of the dharma stuff answered.

I’m saying they’re coming to take over for the Others…

I’m looking forward to seeing Gerald and Karen stepping off the boat.

Right… They’re coming as in a pluralty of people are on their way to the island and will be arriving soon. People are speculating that it’s Desmond or Widmore… I think Widmore is associated with the Dharma Initiative and will probably be part of the group that’s coming. It could be the return of the Dharma Initiative… The Others seem to be screwing up their island duties so maybe the DI will come to take over doing Jacob’s work. It’s going to be hard to answer questions about the DI without them becoming a player in the show again…

ooh also the question the swan people ask: are you HIM? that might help support your theory that either jacob or mib is in league with them…
