Could Jacob and the man in black be Greek gods, and the Island be Mt. Olympus or Atlantis?

Why not? We're making assumptions based upon what we know which are leading our line of thinking down a path that may be completely incorrect.

We know that when Juliet pounded on the bomb the screen turned white. We also know that the screen turned white whenever they would jump time.

We know that there have been time jumps already. Why couldn't there be a completely alternate universe where the plane never crashes? We 'think' we know that Jack recognizes people on the plane. But is it a can't place them look or a I know for sure I know them from somewhere, why don't they recognize me look.

Was the red mark on Jack's neck from the turbulence (somehow) or the explosion/time jump?

Was Desmond really on the plane or was he jumping through time and ended up on the planet for a few moments.
