Island Badass

It is possible that John Locke is crazier than Hugo.  It is also possible that he really does have some sort of crazy meta-physical connection with the island.  He represents faith, intuition and blind devotion.

Earlier in his life these traits left him alone, trampled on and getting royally screwed over on a regular basis.  If you remember, his dad stole his kidney then dumped him.  He also worked at that crappy retail store where everyone made fun of him.  On the island these traits have elevated him to super star status as the new leader of the others.

I found myself being a little more like Jack and completely prone to analytical thinking.  John Locke has the ability to transcend logic and commune with some sort of higher power.  I don’t know if that is a good thing or not.

Nonetheless, I want someone to seriously explain how this guy came back from the dead.  I think Benjamin Linus said it best, “Dead is Dead”.  I mean seriously dead the island magically blow fairy dust into his lungs.  Did he do some wacky time traveling.  What is the story?  I need to know.
