| | contemplative | ] | i have been pondering john locke, the 17th century philosopher, writer and political activist. and wondering how much of his work maybe a link to the show. maybe i am giving americans too much credit?? *grin*
but interestingly: "Good and evil, reward and punishment, are the only motives to a rational creature: these are the spur and reins whereby all mankind are set on work, and guided." (Locke.)
considering what is happening to claire (yes i have E4, but i also have a job so don't watch it) i thought the good/evil theme was interesting.
also if you go to lost untold and look at the info on claire they show tarot cards - death (which actually means change not death) the devil (more about being enchained/unslaved than evil) and the star ( which i seem to remember is quite positive) i keep meaning to look up more through meanings but forget... |
