re: #440 Walter L. Newton

I’m not crazy about the mystical element being the culmination of the story. I was hoping there would be some sort of sci-fi explanation like maybe Jacob and smokey are stranded time travelers or part of an alien race who could bend the laws of physics.
To have all this end with Jack and Sawyer replacing God and the devil to continue the same epic struggle for all of humanity just seems a little dull and cheap to me.
