Dane,
Riddle me this:
The show is about Jack's transformation from man of science to man of faith. We agree inasmuch. So, why is it that you're expecting us to take the man of science approach to view the ending?
That is, the man of science is a skeptic, like Jack was in the beginning. He was skeptical of anything and everything. He'd call bullshit. In the latter seasons, as he progressed, we see the man of science be replaced with the man of faith. In this, we're supposed to take away that we should have faith in something. "Destiny." "We're all here for a reason". "We have to go back!" Why would you want us to reject the faith that "the things on the island actually happened" and instead accept the man of science approach which is "bullshit, this is a man's comprehension as he dies".
It seems like the opposite of Jack's journey.
