So anyone watch Lost? Its coming back soon I think.
I read a very interesting theory earlier on another site, I don't think I buy it as a whole personally for 3 reasons:
- it fails to explain as much as it might explain - it just seems too far fetched - even in Christian America, I don't think ABC would have the audacity to do something quite so biblical, although its difficult to come to the conclusion after reading this that there aren't subtle hints throughout. - I'm not actually sure the writers of Lost knew where they were taking it, especially back in the 2nd series.
But it is very interesting nonetheless. So warning, potential (though unlikely) spoilers follow: _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Why the island is the Garden of Eden:
The island is a form of the Old Testament times, along with the Garden of Eden connected. What I mean by that is simply that the island is not only the Garden of Eden, but it's also connected with other old places in the bible (such as the Temple, which is also mentioned many times in the Old Testament). There are many reasons I believe this to be true. In season 2, when Eko gets killed by the black smoke monster (aka the Serpent in the Garden of Eden) he confesses all of his sins but one. He is talking to his brother, Yemi, who is taking form of the serpent (black smoke). When he doesn't confess the last sin, Yemi walks into the jungle. Soon after, the black smoke appears and kills Eko. This is because he didn't confess all of his sins. He has been judged. Just like God judged Eve for eating the bad apple from the tree. Soon after this, Locke finds Eko dead along with the "Jesus Stick" with all the scriptures written on it. It also shows a scripture from revelations (this is a HUGE hint, I'll tell you why later). Notice also that the black smoke, or Serpent is only on one part of the island. He rests inside the Garden of Eden, but doesn't seem to bother other parts of the island.
Now for a little more about Eko. The episode for Eko's flashback, revels so much about the show. The episode's name is "Psalms 108". That is the middle verse in the entire bible. On the season 2 DVD box set, it says "The truth will be revealed". Coincidence? "Do not mistake coincidence, for fate" John Locke once said. Here is the verse for Psalms 108:
Psalms 108 Who will bring me into the strong city? Who will lead me into Eden?
Let's now add up all the numbers that were being broad casted on the radio tower from the island. 4 + 8 + 15 + 16 + 23 + 42 = 108. Psalms 108. Perhaps that's why these numbers were being broad casted from the island, to lead their way to Eden?
In Christianity (keep in mind, J.J. Abrams and Damon Lindelof, the creators of LOST are BOTH CHRISTIANS), the Garden of Eden was sealed off by God when Eve sinned. God was angry at Eve and made it impossible for babies to get born in the garden. This way Eve could never have a child as punishment. This explains why it's impossible for babies to be born on the island.
Back to the island once more. Remember in the second episode, Pilot Part 2, John Locke emphasizes the two backgammon pieces, and says "Two players. Two sides. One is light, one is dark." The light side is the believers. The dark side is the non-believers. If you are a Christian, this makes a whole lot of sense to you. If you aren't, this probably won't seem as real as it sounds, you'll have a lot of doubt. Also remember the episode when John Locke goes into the cave and find the two skeletons? He states that the two skeletons are “our very own Adam and Eve ”. He then found two marbles hidden within the skeletons, one is light and one is dark. The light one represents again, good and evil, the believers and the non-believers. Eve sinned. Adam was innocent.
Who the others and the people on the freighter are:
Ben, and the original inhabitants of the island, are protecting the world from “the beginning of the end”. Farfetched? Perhaps for a TV show, but here’s my explanation.
Ben is viewed as evil. This is simply to throw all the viewers off thinking Ben has bad intentions. The writers of LOST have done this many times before, making us think something that wasn’t. Ben, when he was young (Ben flashback episode) found out the truth about the island. How important his work there with the others really was. He found out that he must protect the island all he can, because he “knew” what the island was. That’s why he killed off the entire Dharma team, because Dharma was a group of scientists who didn’t know, and didn’t believe in God. They had no way of knowing that the island was the Garden of Eden, and that they were interfering what mattered most, keeping the world intact. The Dharma team did in fact find the island because like all scientists, are extremely smart people. They didn’t know however, how much it depended on the life of all humanity. This is why Ben killed all of them off, after talking to his mom and Richard in the Ben flashback episode. They never showed us why Ben killed off Dharma, but that’s because that would give away the story. But I assure you, it’s because Richard or Ben’s mother told him what the island really was, the Garden of Eden.
Before I go on, keep this bit of numerology in mind: 8 + 1 + 5 = 14 … 1 + 4 = 5 … 2 + 3 = 5. 23 is the last number in terms of numerology you can make of 815. There are only 22 chapters in the Book of Revelation) This links up what I’m about to say about the people on the freighter.
At the end of season 3, the people on the freighter are coming to rescue the survivors of Oceanic flight 815. Ben is tells all of the survivors, and we know now, that “These people aren’t who they say they are” and that “Jack, if you make this call, it’s the beginning of the end”. What could Ben mean by that it’s the beginning of the end? Think about it. In the same episode, before Jack makes the phone call to the freighter, Ben instructs all of his people to go to the Temple. Could this be the temple that the Book of Revelations talks about? If you are aware with Christianity at all or the bible, the very last thing that happens before Jesus Christ returns is the temple is taken over. The people on the freighter could possibly be after the temple. That is why Ben is so concerned. Now why else would he say “this is the beginning of the end?” Why else would he lead all his people to the Temple? TO PROTECT IT FROM BEING OVERTHROWN, OF COURSE!
More about the others:
Have you ever wondered why Richard never aged? Again, pulling this out from the bible, there is such thing as the Tree of Life, which grants you eternal life. This was located in the Garden of Eden. The others knew the secret about this tree. There is also another tree in the Garden of Eden, called the Tree of Good and Evil. This goes back to the light and dark, the believers and the non-believers. Ever wonder why John Locke was completely healed when he got on the island? Because he found faith in God when they landed. As any Christian would know, the more faith you have, the more God will heal you. John Locke was completely healed! Take this awesome quote into consideration before you read the rest:
“You know why we never look eye to eye Jack? Because you’re a man of science, I’m a man of faith” – John Locke.
The others know how important it is for no one to get on the island. If people do, it risks the chance of the world ending. Why? I’ll tell you why. The others have been protecting the world from ending for who knows how long. The switch that counts down from 108 in the Swan hatch is a security device install by Dharma to hide the island from people. When the switch was left alone, it made the island visible to the “outside world” for a very short time. Ben knew that it was a short time, that why he wasn't really concerned when the sky turned purple.
Remember the infamous comic book Walt was reading? It showed a snow globe? Well, consider that the Garden of Eden / Old Testament times God sealed away. Consider the others to be the mighty angels got sealed along with the Garden of Eden to protect it. All of this stuff I'm saying isn't made up, it's in the bible, most of it is in Genesis. Read it. Even the four-toed statue. Yes, that is in the bible. The mighty kings who protected the Garden of Eden had four toes.
Why God sent the people from Oceanic Flight 815 to the island:
Everyone was sent to the island for a reason. To find themselves. I find it funny how to show is called “LOST” when “LOST” really means LOST in life, not only on the island. Jack was sent to perform surgery on Ben. John Locke could possibly be (although this could stir up a huge controversy) the second coming of Jesus Christ. Don’t bet on that one though. Just a thought I had. Every single character was sent to that island for a purpose, but most we do not know yet. I’m sure we will find out why sooner or later. Claire had a baby and named him Aaron for no apparent reason, she said. Aaron is a baby in the bible, in the Book of Exodus in the Old Testament. I’m not quite sure what his purpose is yet. And Walt, possibly the anti-christ? The anti-christ returns when the end times happen. Walt has very strange things that happen around him, like the birds he kills, etc.
Other obscure statements:
1) Think of the magnetic force the island holds as God's energy. That's why the island heals.
2) In LOST, most of the names are biblical. Benjamin, Jacob (Benjamin was the son of Jacob in the bible), Issac, Daniel, Aaron, the list goes on. I can't really explain who Jacob really is, but remember ... "GOD LOVES YOU AS HE LOVED JACOB".
3) Remember the number 23 on the door where they are brainwashing Carl? Again, the number 23, there is only 22 chapters in the Book of Revelations! The beginning of the end, indeed.
4) The Oceanic 6 could be the non-believers who left the island. Remember Jack said we have to go back, because he was a man of science? He's tried of lying, remember?
5) Charlie did the God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit right before he died. He then later appeared as an angel to Hurley telling him he needed to go back to the island.
Is all of this just symbolic?
Yeah, it’s possible that all of this is symbolic, but I highly doubt it. How else are they going to explain what I just explained? It makes so much sense it’s unbelievable. Yeah, I’m sure LOST might lose fans of the non-believers, but it also could help save a few souls in the time we live in.
