I am really seeing a God vs. Devil thing setting up here, anyone else?

Assuming that Jin is the "Kwon" then everyone on the list is male. Guessing only a male can be a "candidate".

That's not really true. The Dharma door was shown as meaning nothing in the on context in Season 5, but the numbers have never been explained.

But I don't expect people to stop using that same tired line either.

Good episode. We got some nice info. Interesting to see the 6 candidates have the numbers associated with them.

Sorry, I call bs on Lost and the producers here.

The Numbers are now officially the one thing that frustrates me with this show.

I could be wrong, and I hope I am, but I'm seeing right through this made up storyline to create some significance for the Numbers.

Everyone had a Number associated to them. How could Jacob know which people exactly mattered? The reality is he did not. If he knew which ones mattered, he wouldn't have written everyone's name on that wall and then have them crossed out when they died. That means that everyone on that wall was a potential candidate.

If everyone on that wall is a potential candidate then the Numbers mean nothing. It just so happens that they are the numbers associated with the remaining living men (assuming Kwon is Jin) on the Island. That's coincidence.

If by chance they find a really good explanation then I'll admit I'm wrong, but I don't see it happening. Jacob purposely brought Kate to the Island and she isn't on that list. Jacob purposely brought both Jin and Sun to the Island and only one is on that list. Maybe if time travel has something to do with it then ok, but it better be a great explanation or otherwise I'll just continue to call BS on trying to create a story line out of nothing.

I'm interested in knowing why you think that.

Spoiler

I don't recall Roland replacing anyone, but maybe my memory is foggy.

We know Jacob has ALWAYS been bringing people to the Island trying to find "the one." It could just be merely a coincidence that those numbers were with characters we know. Faraday was also on the list - and he wasn't assigned one of the "numbers."

Plus - why are you led to believe that what Smokey is saying is true? And if it IS true - then it looks like Jacob was a prisoner just like Smokey.

It is not just men, there were women listed on the ceiling, mainly Shannon and Rousseau.
