Maybe I’m being too much of a Lost “purist” or I believe what I want to believe, but I feel compelled to think that the island and its forces have to do with the conception. We’ve seen how Rose’s illness was cured and how Locke can now walk, so we know that somehow the island has a way of curing impurities. We have speculated that it is somehow due to the electromagnetic disposition of the island. This would make the island a perfect place for the kind of work that the others are doing– if we assume that they are trying to create a genetically superior human race. They are much more worried about psychological studies than physical and health. Therefore I’m lead to beleive that the island was picked by the others or dharma to be a place to grow this gene pool.
That said, if the island has the power to heal impurities then my guess is that either sun or jin were cured of their baby making problems (we can’t be sure if the doctor was telling the truth or influenced by dharma, so we can’t be sure who actually did have the problem)and so either their actions before the crash have somehow allowed the island to allow Sun to conceive, or their actions since crashing have created a “scenario” for conception and as a result we have a baby!

Reading through some of the old posts since I have nothing better to do tonight (thanks ABC).

Sun tells Jin she has been faithful to him. If she thought he was infertile and she decided to be artificially inseminated (sp?), would that count as being unfaithful? Not quite honest, I’d give you that. But that situation could lead her to say that she has been faithful. Of course the down side to this idea is that we want to believe that one of them was healed by the island.

Andreas: I don’t have the Season 2 DVD’s either. The 2 characters are just as different to me as Tom Hanks being confused for Dustin Hoffman. But again, that’s likely a problem with interracial identification issues, I understand that.

Tom, I love your theory! The truth about Charlie kidnapping Sun would be bound to come out if someone thinks she was raped by the kidnapper. And then people will want to know *why* Charlie kidnapped her and then things are going to get *really* messy.

Not everyone owns the DVD’s and are able to go back and check Cecilia. But no Dean, it’s not the same guy.

Uh, no dean, definitely very different looking people. I’m surprised people haven’t started suggesting that Jin & Sun aren’t both Dr. Candle, also… LOL

I think when we look at good theories of what happened, we have to take into account personal motivations that would make sense for the plot. In that way, what andres said makes most sense… Charlie did it to get back at Locke, not because he is some sort of sexual deviant who wanted to hurt Sun.

Andreas– Ah-ha, actually I haven’t forgotten that (though I guess I haven’t mentioned it specifically). I think there’s a possibility that Mr. Paik is part of the conspiracy, so there may be more reasons for him getting the doctor to do his bidding than just breaking them up, I really agree with this. And the island “healing” one of the two… I don’t think this is separate from DHARMA either. There are many different ways they could include a conspiracy in this even if the genetic parents were Sun & Jin. After all, it appears the Others wanted Claire’s baby, even though it was “naturally” conceived, by all appearances… but perhaps the right qualities were already there, or there is more of a story than we know about at this point.

I can’t believe Charlie would have raped Sun. That’s out. I think the best explanation is that Jin was cured by the island. I tend to believe the doctor the second time. In the doctor’s office, I thought the dr. might be lying because in that culture, it would be very hard for a man to take that he is infertile.

I’m wondering if Charlie’s ‘good turn’ will only come after the truth about him kidnapping Sun is revealed – I mean it’s already suggested here that Sun could have been raped when kidnapped (not my opinion) – so surely somebody on the island would at least mention this possibility, leading to the truth coming out, and Charlie seeking forgiveness and confessing that he was the one to kidnap her and that he didn’t do anything?? I mean, if he is to truly seek forgiveness and a better path, surely that means a confession at some point (to Eko?).

Also, regarding the possiblity of Sun conceiving prior to the flight, it’s definitely a possibility, as there are many stories of women not knowing htey are pregnant for the whole term, never mind a couple of months. Don’t forget that she’s survived a plane crash & ‘split’ with her husband when he went to sea – stress can affect people in many ways, including messing up her cycle.
