Reality TV World Message Board Forums
PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats, but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are encouraged to read the complete guidelines. As entertainment critic Roger Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Locke's Name"
I looked around and have noticed that there have been no references to Locke's name. Locke is named after the philosopher John Locke. Since nothing in this show doesn't have some sort of significance his name must mean something too.

For those of you who don't know Locke came up with the natural rights philosophy that all humans possess 3 nautural rights: Life, liberty, and property and they possess these rights even in a state of nature where there is no governement. His philosopy is deeply rooted in our own declaration of independence. B/c we want to protect these rights we enter into a contract and form a government but by doing that we lose our freedoms.

Obviously, the state of nature has to refer to the island. There is no leaders, no laws, each person has to protect his or her natural rights. But I'm not sure where Locke ulitmately fits into this. Maybe he will be the one to split the survivors and form some sort of government.

Any ideas??? This has been bugging me for the longest time.

1. "RE: Locke's Name"
Welcome to the boards!!

There was quite a bit of discussion about character names earlier in the season, but that thread has fallen back off the first page. You'll find it here.
