  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Children from the tail section?

I can't remember the episode - it could have been season 2 when one of them was dragging the teddy bear behind him trompsing thru the woods.
Yes, that was our first look at the others. I've always thought they are other others since they were barefoot and dirty, IIRC. As opposed to Ben et. al. who were living quite comfortably.

I've always thought of the Other Others as the hostiles, and the Others as the more civilized group that lived in the Dharma camps.

But seeing how they disguised themselves with the fake beards and clothes, and how Richard looked in 1954 and 1974, I think they've always been the same group of Others.

Hmmm...what with all the drama at the end of 2004 - attacks and counter attacks, half the barracks burning down, the Flame getting blown to matchsticks, ect...I do gotta wonder just what happened to the kids - especially what with all the dead Others who were presumably looking after them. Wonder if they did a 'Lord of the Flies' for real number. In that case, we could have bodies start dropping as the kids defend their turf from the new arrivals in 2007. Wasn't somebody saying something about 'redshirts'?
