I think there's a meditation on imperfectly understood belief systems at play. previous Ben was not who he REALLY was, he was who he would when he believed he was on the side of the righteous.

Me too! Which is one of the reasons why I love this show.
Back is S1/S2 I hated Sawyer. After the Sun "kidnapping" I thought he was beyond trust, beyond redemption. But now... he's become one of my favorite characters, and one I often route for. His arch has been a highlight of the show, IMO. I'm excited to see what's next for him. |

So then, are you saying you think Ben no longer believes he's on the side of righteousness? |

Maybe I should have initially clarifed that he thought he was ACTING on the side of the righteous.

Ben may have just caught up to Sawyer in the "growth" department in this last episode. We'll have to see if Ben's change of heart is genuine and sticks, or if it's more of the same manipulation... but there's no doubt Sawyer's journey as been outstanding. |

We saw first hand how Sayid was "healed" by the Temple and how the "darkness" grew in heart. I believe they're drawing that parallel but we'll see. |

Thanks. I knew I wasn't nuts.

Yeah, Jack "Shepard" does make it look like he is the chosen one.
