    Guys you know that the chain of event start here with Faraday conversation? This is where the loop start, not with the hatch.
    Faraday is killed by his mother who will find his journal. She and Charles will learn about Desmond (Desmond is my constant) and they will know that Daniel will be their son.
    Eloise, Charles and Richard (since he met Sawyer) know that the oceanic 815 are coming.
    So when Charles learn that Penny felt in love with a guy name Desmond, that's why he hates Desmond, because of Daniel's journal. He knew that he would end up on the island and he tried to protect his daughter.
    And he use his race around the world to try to find the island (with the lampost station). He send Desmond on this sail race to get rid of him and to get him into the island (one stone two birds).

      WOW!!!! I don’t know how how else to respond. So we are to assume that Charles Widmore like Eloise knew what the future was? But didn’t he get banished off the island because he had a relationship with someone off the island? Puts a little damper to his plans or was it always intentional and planned the entire time? Eloise would not have been okay with it.

      @@TJMalana well there still stuff unexplained like who is Penny mother. But that's not important for the story. I tend to think a story is good if not everything is connected to the plot.
      Here we just need to know that Widmore knew someone named Desmond will be going to be very important for the island.
      I think by "being at desmond" he was angry at the island because...well desmond is Penny's lover and he was so scared she will be dragged on the island.
      Many people think that Lost didn"t ansewered many things but the answers are here, it's always link to the characters, not an obscur mythology with egyptians

He was right to use the bomb to stop Radzinsky's drilling, which could have destroyed the world. But destroying the island's electromagnetic energy? No. That's why the Oceanic time travelers ended up back in 2007 and not 2004.

    Then there is the theoretical hypothesis
    about time travel. Great quote from the HBO series The affair “What would happen if you
    could travel back in time and
    make a different choice in your
    past, how that would affect your
    life in the future. So the theory
    goes that your true life, your first
    life, continues as it is,
    unchanged, but at the moment of
    decision, a new life splits off
    along a tangent, into a parallel
    universe. So you could, in a way,
    live both lives.”

      Second, Locke, Eko et al didnt push the button, and Desmond turned the failsafe key.
      To be precise, Faraday didnt say Desmond stopped pushing the button (i.e. no more) he said he failed to push it (i.e. missed one turn).
