Ok, here's my theory as to the whole "Lost" series:
It's purgatory.
Everyone actually died during the plane crash and they're now "in between" heaven and hell. What they do on the island determines where they'll go next.
When they are ready to "move on", they're taken by the Others.
It explains why everything ties together from each characters past, why the Others immediately take the children, why Locke can now walk etc.
I was somewhat wavering on this theory until last night. Ecko choosing to be a "priest" could ultimately lead to his salvation.
Take it for what it's worth....
