No, not necessarily.

Widmore can't find the island. Ben knows how to travel back and forth but won't share the info. Widmore hires Faraday to find the island, buys the "lost" Hanso journal from the Blackrock. He'll do anything to find the island.

I don't think it's "purgatory". That's supposedly where people who haven't sinned enough to be sent to Hell go for punishment. Additionally in theory, there would be millions of souls in purgatory, it wouldn't be empty.

Not buying it.

There's only 3 episodes left this year. Thursday night's show and a two-hour episode next week. After that, there will only be 32 hours in total left of the show, 16 episodes in 2009 and the final 16 in 2010.

And supposedly, there will be some massive reveals in the final three hours this season. So it's possible that the true nature of the island will be revealed.

Great argument

So books are realistic? Movies aren't realistic? W.T.F ever.

Juno wasn't a "fantasy". And it has a serious plot hole with a hyper-intelligent girl choosing not to use birth control.

It's annoying to me when people think they make a point but really don't. It's just blah, blah, blah.

I thought the plot was leading towards Widemore trying to find the island and kill Ben so that Ben can't kill his daughter?

Almost as annoying as egomaniacs who believe their POV is the only correct one. Blah, blah, blah.

I've known very smart kids that took a stupid risk now and then. Had a large role in raising a couple.

For the record, Hyper-Intelligent and Sharp ≠ never taking a dumb risk. IMO, it can lead to a condition called "being too smart for your own good".

I've known plenty of very smart kids that took a risk now and then. Apparently you never did.
And apparently since I don't share the same opinion as you, I'm an egomaniac.

Which in itself is completely laughable considering the great lengths you go in this forum to prove that you are always correct, whether it's in this sub-forum or the DC sub-forum.

What a freakin' joke

No, I didn't take those kind of risks. Not in high school, college or as an adult. I've seen first hand the problems that are created by teenage and young adult pregnancy and wanted no part of it.

Why is it so difficult to buy a box of condoms?

Not at all. Our differing opinions have nothing to do with it.

Regarding your axis mundi theory, it's possible, and an interesting conjecture. Where we differ is I'm not going to berate someone or insinuate they aren't sufficently intelligent "to get it" because they dare to offer a different opinion on something as yet unsubstantiated. You have done exactly that several times in this thread, and it's that behavior that reinforces my view of you as an egomaniac.

Unlike some on this board, I have no problem admitting I'm wrong if I'm shown to be in error. I'm pretty sure almost any regular in DC or any other forum who is familiar with my posts would confirm that. Will I go to lengths to make and defend my point? Certainly. However, it's a long way from that to the claim of inerrancy you have falsely attributed to me.

What a freakin' joke indeed. Keep flailing.

Again, just because you didn't, doesn't preclude every sharp or intelligent kid from taking a (IMO) foolish risk now and then.

I'll admit. I must be completely stupid. I don't have a clue what an axis mundi is. The show is very interesting to me. I enjoy it. I guess I don't 'get' the show as DM says.

The Office is my favorite show. I have never worked in an office. Does that mean I don't 'get' that show, either.

I also watch Grey's Anatomy. I'm not a doctor. Obviously, I don't 'get' it...

Nice.

I've never had the majority of my species annihilated by cyborgs, and been forced to flee in search of a mythical locale to reestablish my culture. That doesn't keep me from "getting" BSG or commenting on it.



Besides, I figured out a long time ago who was behind the Island, Widmore, and Ben. It's just a shame no one else is bright enough to understand it...

Umm, limbo is the same thing on the other end (between heaven and earth). So, yeah, it kind of is the same thing they've ruled out. Which would piss me off just because people speculated that way back and they ruled it out.

Dane, I appreciate your views on the show. I would never have even heard of the term "axis mundi" had you not posted it. That being said, the fact that you choose to talk down to and treat everyone here as an idiot makes no sense to me.

Just present your opinions without berating everyone and people wouldn't be attacking you right now.
