LOST-Speculation on who the "others" are

[Cletus_Vandam]

I know were are all wondering the same thing, who are the others and how in the world can they know so much and do all the other things they are able to?

I've heard friends say that they think that everyone on the plane died in the crash and they are all in purgatory, but last time I heard the theology on purgatory, children and dogs wouldn't be there... So I don't think that's it.

I personally think the others are aliens. How else could they know what they know about everyone's deepest secrets; cure Juliet's sisters' cancer; etc. I think they created the island to mirror their planet and cannot re-populate to keep their civilization going. That's why they are seeking mothers and babies to survive.

What is everyone else's take on this?

That's a very interesting theory. Would make sense.

But I've quit trying to guess.

I know what you mean. Every time the show starts taking you down one path they totally throw in the opposite direction. I guess that's what makes it as entertaining as it is...

They sure know how to keep me interested and on the edge of my seat. Everytime I think I know something there's another twist.

I've had people ask me to tell them what the show is all about. I tell them it's just way too intricate. No way I could explain it all. You just have to watch to get it.

The OTHERS are (like the rest of the show) a figment of the screen writer’s imagination. They must be smoking strong hallucinogenic substances to come up with there ideas.
