LCfiner said:the broken Virgin Mary was important in that is contained the smack that Charlie wanted to cleanse himself from. the inmagery of the actual statue was not the key part of that scene.
The fact that the smack was contained in the statues was very important imagery. It ties into both spiritual background of Eko and Charlie.
Eko was an interesting character I'll give you that. he definitely wanted to find real faith, not just in the island, but in God to redeem himself. Of course, he got killed off since he was so important.
He got killed off because the actor wanted to leave the show. They wanted to keep him on for 4 years. They had big plans for the most spiritual character on the show but it was out of their control.
Building a church does not equal a show that is concerned with spirituality outside of Eko's character.
No, it's a spiritual aspect of the show. And it wasn't just Eko, it was Charlie as well. Spirituality is part of what helped him get better in season 2 and the church never being finished was significant of Eko pushing his faith aside because he felt he had a more important purpose.
As for Kate, does it mean that anytime a character prays on a show, the show is ultimately all about faith? got it
Did you just confuse Saiyd with Kate? :lol
Locke, we already established as being someone who needs to believe in the island. not sure what you mean.
He posted a scene from the episode where Boone's ghost took him on a spiritual journey, which helped Locke find his way again.
I'm just saying that Lost was way more concerned with EM pseudo science, time travel, dharma mysteries and The Numbers than spirituality for 5 seasons.
Yes, but it was always a part of it.
