Good point! I've been assuming all along that the island is at the centre of some cosmic balancing force (time, fate, karmha etc...) and that one of the main themes of the show was how the main characters (all damaged in some way) fare in the face of it.
I don't think I'm far off, especially now that it's seems to have taken on a godlike judgement role, but giving the Island an UNbalanced personality adds an intriquing layer.
Also, given that we now know the Monster is something ancient and not modern technology, the question of its origin becomes wide open. I'm quietly hoping for Aliens.
It would be a helluvan ending if the entire Island turned out to be a spaceship and the final scene revealed it tearing itself up from the ocean floor and launching into the sky, shaking off the earth as it went.
And now for something completely different:
A fun theorythat I read online is that the Locke we have now is actually a manifestation of the Monster (and the island by extension), just like Alex in the Temple and perhaps Christian or Jacob. We never see him and the monster together and in a cute way, the scene with him coming out of the forest after Ben called it fits the theory.
