BiNG – Good little theory, in roundabout way technically Aaron could be both MIB and Jacob ( I hope that’s what you meant lol – its really early). Although I am slightly worried (for myself and Eko73) because you mentioned about a civilisation sophisticated (or advanced) enough to harness the energy, and it automatically made me think of Alien vs Predator, which has panicked me into thinking that maybe Lost will be about aliens..

Inquisitor – nice to have you sat on the fence

Greatforsaken – I appreciate the comment and yes there are definate holes in my theory.

Xactxx – great twist on the infection! That could definately be a possibility in my mind!

nanochris – Thankyou for the addition! I am liking the alternate world/alternate Aaron theory!

Eko73 – I completely forgot about adding in about the women not reaching full term thing, and in addition to this, a question has arose in my mind – does MIB need a woman who HAS reached almost full term to be able to “attach” himself to the baby. I think this is a possible yes, but only in the sense that a more developed baby would give him a better chance of living through them. I just read that the third trimester starts at 27 weeks, and two or three weeks prior to that is when the foetus will be “complete” (again, for lack of a better word). Maybe if the baby is not complete enough, then MIB cannot inhibit them?

What if Jacob did take MIB’s body at one unseen point & MIB had to take a different form, maybe the form of some dead person he has killed from Jacob’s previous experiments like he mentioned.

The earliest we have seen Jacob & MIB is in 1867 but it would seem that they are alot older than that. The Tawaret statue, the well, frozen donkey wheel & the temple seem to prove that there was a civilization there at some point that was pretty sophisticated to build something to harness the Islands powers with the Frozen Donkey Wheel.

So there is probably a ton of stuff that could of happened in between then & now an with all this talk about MIB being Aaron, an Aaron being blonde an with MIB claiming that Jacob took his body (A Common Occurance In Lost) Then wouldnt MIB’s real body be Jacobs thus making him a blonde an would help explain why MIB might be Aaron.

Soon after the plane crash, Claire says she can’t feel her baby move anymore. After a short while, she does feel it move again. Could Aaron have died and then resurrected, like what happened to Sayid?

Maybe that’s why the Others then took Claire and started injecting stuff to the womb?

Would be interesting if that’s the case…

I had suggested at one time that Smokey was Aaron also. And I also integrated the idea that maybe that was the reason why they couldnt birth on the island. This theory of mine was earlier in the series, and in my mind the only way it was possible was if Jacob or someone took all the evil out of Aaron (taking MiB’s body from him) and that his old body is the “home” MiB said he wanted to get back to. But even this would take some form of time travel, since we all know that Smokey and Jacob have been around since olden olden olden times. But at this point I just dont see it being possible anymore.

MIB doesn’t take over dead bodies.
He recreates their image.
For him to recreate Aaron – Aaron would have been stillborn.
