I suppose I should study up on my time travel rules.

And I am going to go out on a limb and say that the bomb didn't change anything. In fact, I think Faraday is wrong and the bomb has always been part of the incident.

Here's a radical thought... Maybe Faraday knew that!

I just don't know.....If Whatever happened really always happened then why:


1)Charlotte, right before she died, told Faraday that he(Faraday) came up to her when she was a child and in a scary way told her to leave the Island and never come back? Now, he is dead and so far all we've seen is him talk to her in a calm(not scary) voice to leave the Island with her mother.....nothing was said about never coming back. Perhaps Faraday, in a small way, changed things even before setting off the H-bomb.

2)Did Faraday, biggest advocate of WHH, after 3 years of intense study off Island, come to the conclusion that things can be changed?

3)Did Ben, right after Alex was killed, say Widmore changed the rules?

4)Did Mrs Hawking go thru the bother of making sure Desmond took a certain path if he had always taken that path?

5)Do Charlie, Claire, Ana Lucia, Libby, and maybe even Christian keep popping up? Could it be that they are still alive in a Universe where the plane doesn't crash on the Island and that is why Charlie said to Hurley "Iam dead, but I am also here"???

The producers said they are not in purgatory, a dream or a snow globe. Maybe they are in the Twilight Zone.

I already posted about Sobek. Nice to see that no one is reading my posts.

Who are you and how long have you been posting here?

I am! I remember that but I couldn't remember who posted it and I didn't search. I'll go stand in the corner and bow my head in shame.

If you were a 4 year old child and a man you didn't know came up to you and told you to leave the only home you've ever known, that would be scary. I seem to remember him making her cry, because he was crying. Either that, or sloppy writing.

2)Did Faraday, biggest advocate of WHH, after 3 years of intense study off Island, come to the conclusion that things can be changed?

Here's a classic LOST cop out for ya - he was wrong.

3)Did Ben, right after Alex was killed, say Widmore changed the rules?

This has nothing to do with the timeline because Ben hadn't traveled through time. He just had supposed rules with Widmore which Widmore broke. No real explanation for "the rules" yet, but it may have something to do with the passing of Others leadership from Widmore to Ben.

4)Did Mrs Hawking go thru the bother of making sure Desmond took a certain path if he had always taken that path?

This is easy. The only reason he always takes that path is because Mrs Hawking always makes sure he does.

5)Do Charlie, Claire, Ana Lucia, Libby, and maybe even Christian keep popping up? Could it be that they are still alive in a Universe where the plane doesn't crash on the Island and that is why Charlie said to Hurley "Iam dead, but I am also here"???

Sure. Or a dozen other options. Here are some easy ones. 1. They are inhabited by Jacob, 2. They are inhabited by Esau, 3. They are inhabited by Locke's ghost, 4. Hurley talks to the dead but in a different way than Miles does, 5. The island won't let them go to the afterlife, as it is a very needy island...

Any other questions? I'd love to make up more answers. As the show has shown that they can do anything they want, I can make up any theory I want and it is just as viable as what actually happens. So I no longer have any trouble with inconsistencies.

Will Sawyer lose his shirt for more episodes?
How come the water is so damn blue and there is little seaweed?
Are they still eating Dharma food?
How come the food drops stopped (though they may have answered that earlier in the series and I forgot)?
How did the polar bear skeleton get to Tunsia?
Why does the mover of the island go to Tunsia when the island is moved (and why didn't Locke end up there)?
Where are the kids and the kidnapped Losties?
What happened to the Othersville that they showed the kids and kidnapped Losties at?

They probably explained some of these already but I forgot.
