[D-Roc]

Jack is a man who has trouble understanding the concept of miracles. No, scrap that..he understands them alright (See Sarah being able to wriggle her lil' toes again after being paralysed)..he has trouble 'accepting' the concept of miracles.

Let's take a moment to view the world through the eyes of the good doctor and see if he's actually got a point.

Locke to Jack: "This isn't an ISLAND...it's a place where miracles happen"

Hold on hold on. Press rewind. A couple of seasons ago Locke said:

"The ISLAND brought us here".

The ISLAND, huh. So that's ISLAND..as in ISLAND? Cool, got it.

So Jack see's Locke's 'fanatism' (not my words..Locke's isn't opposed to opposing views, but let's roll with the word fanatism for now) grow..the thing that brought them here goes from being an "island" to a "place where mircales happen".

Now imagine you were Jack (horrible and tormenting thought I know and profusely apologise)..and your antagonist tells you this:

"This piece of glass brought us here"

Then 2 seasons later you witness the same persons fanatism grow to the point of them telling you:

"This is not just a piece of glass..it's a place where mircales happen!"

Sound kinda crazy, right?

A piece of glass..how on earth can that be a place where mircales happen..furthermore, i'm JACK, i don't believe in miracles anymore..not since Sarah broke my heart..boo-hoo!

So i guess, Jack would have two options..to look closely at the piece of glass and realise that when he LOOKS at it..when he truely looks at it, he can see HIS OWN REFLECTION through this LOOKING GLASS.

OR..he can cut himself with it, and bleed out just like his appendix wound.

Jack would much rather cut himself..because it's far more tangible..he can feel pain, but he's not feeling faith much. Faith sucks..well it would if it was tangible.

So yeah, of course Locke's crazy..Locke's crazy for thinking that you would grasp where he's coming from, Jack. Locke's crazy for bringing the horse to intangible water.

But is Locke crazy for calling the island a place where mircales happen? Hell no..he could have said much more crazy stuff, like "it's not an island..it's freakin person"..or "Island? Pfft..it's HEAVEN!"

But if there's actually nothing nice back home, then that crazy talk begins to make alot of sense don't it Jack.

..Still bleeding, I see.

"Let it go Jack"
