It is clear they died. In the crash. before the Island. The show opens with Jack opening his eye in the forest and closes with the same scene. Still with the shoe hanging off the branch.

When the truth comes out and you all see that they died in the plane crash, can we delete this whole thread?
Your arguement for surviving the crash appears to include the following;
1. People really can survive a 40000ft drop in a burning wreck and wake up in a bamboo forest with a nasty nick.
2. Despite every flash bach showing broken desperate lives, the survivors enter purgatory in season 6 because of the terrible times on the Island.
3. Eko realising his troubles and moving on whilst still on the Island does not in fact prove that it was purgatory all along. (or a similar concept allowing deniability to the writers)
4. Jacob is not at all based on Isaccs Son from the bible and he never had a ladder for redemption. Like the one leading up the cliff face on the Island.

Is the reference people make to the Island being real based on what Christian said?
I recall him saying "everything that has happened to you is real." as well as him being real!.
To Catholics, Purgatory is REAL.
It doesnt mean anymore than that.
When Christian was talking about everything that happened to them was real he meant everything that happened on the Island, in their actual lives when they were flesh and blood in the physical world that everyone reading this thread/post lives in.
Not at all. The Island was Jacobs way of managing the souls realisation. Flash Sideways was Hurley. Ben told him he could do it his way now.
What the Finale told us was that the series was about coming to terms with lifes struggles and learning from them before you move on. Hence Ben not being ready. He spent all the time on the Island carrying on as he was and never learning.
I think it is a very satisfying conclusion. The alternative is that the Island has no explaination at all. Weird stuff just happened. That doesnt answer anything.
Twice actually. I am still to hear any reason why you all believe otherwise.
Am I missing something? Jacob and his brother couldn't leave the island. Then Jacob goes and leaves the Island? Surly that's a massive plot hole. It seems the story goes something like this.
Jacobs brother killed their mum over not being able to leave the island.
Jacobs kills his brother who comes back as the smoke thing.
For some reason now Jacob can leave the island but his brother cannot. Jacob leaves island to bring all the losties to Island.
Effectively by bringing all the Losties to the Island like Ben, Jacob sets it up so his brother can kill him. But the whole reason to bring all the candidates to the Island was to replace Jacob after he died. If Jacob didn't bring the candidates to the Island to replace him, he wouldn't need to be replaced as there would be no candidates around to kill him.
So why could Jacob leave the Island but his brother cannot? What changed to make is so Jacob could leave? Why not just let Jacobs brother leave the Island before he turns into the smoke thing. He leaves, all problems solved. Jacobs keeps protecting island and half the people bought to the Island don't need to be.
not to mention all the other odd stuff like how did all these people in 100ad or whatever year it was know how to build machines out of wood that interact with the light? What was the light and the stones at the all about?
As far as I can see nothing was explained in the end apart from the Flash Sideways.
