Like Grandfather Like Father Like Son Like Grandson by RIPYOGI

This is in response to Joe D.'s theory "Shepherd's have history on the island."

If his theory is correct, which I recommend reading, then this would have further implications on the future. Here's a quick timeline: Ray comes to the island via BlackRock. Ray has a son named Christian, on the island. Ray is banished from the island and Christian leaves with him. Christian has a son named Jack. Christian misses the island and flies around looking for it. Christian has a daughter, Claire. Claire and Jack crash on the island.

Now for the part that ties everything in...

Eloise says for the O6 to get back they must recreate the events of the old flight on flight 316. What if flight 815 was actually recreating the events of the past of the Black Rock? What if Claire and Jack are the secret to finding the island? The island gives off energy. You gain that energy the longer you live there as seen by the nosebleeds by Charlotte, Miles, and Juliette.

I am claiming that people that live on the island and are born from people on the island have an energy ingrained into them that allows them to find the island. Jack and Claire are blood related, Christian's side, which would have given them enough magnetism to bring 815 to the island. Why did Widmore need Charlotte, an archeologist? He didn't need Charlotte the archeaologist; he needed Charlotte and the magnetism that was given to her. It is the same story with Faraday and Miles. They have the magnetism that helped Widmore find the island. What did Christian's shoes have to do with anything? To me they added no value in finding the island. They were needed because Jack needed to believe.

Jack and Claire were the reason for 815 to find the island because they were born by Christian who was the son of Ray. The magnetism is passed to them and through another. If this theory is true, Aaron will have this magnetism. Ji Yeon will have this magnetism. I predict if this is correct that Lost will end the same way Jacob and MIB held their conversation on the beach. It always ends the same they come, they fight, etc. etc. But we will see Aaron and Ji Yeon crashing on the island, older and naive to the situation as Jack and Claire were.

Like Father Like Son: many have suggested that evidence that Christian has been to the island before is Christian's drinking habits which are paralleled by Jack. Ray also claims that they'll never find him if he is able to escape which I thought was a clear indicator that he'll be back in S6.

Apparently, if this is also correct, you cannot find the island through one magnetic source. You need at least two strong energy sources to find the island.

Tear it apart. There is more counter-evidence than evidence, but I hope its something different. Thanks Joe D. for the help.
