Raiders of the LOST Arc: When the Waters are Troubled
One thing I love about Lost is the writers' use of imagery from many sources, with our Christian tradition supplying a number of incidents and references. I don't expect a television program to promote Christianity; I am content that those associated with the program tell the truth about our humanity, and promote basic human values. In general, I believe that Lost does this.
On the season premiere, in the midst of imagery from ancient Egypt and elsewhere, viewers were treated with a reference to John 5--the story of Jesus curing a man at the Pool of Bethesda in Jerusalem. You may recall this incident: a pool of water surrounded by a portico where sick persons gathered. When the waters were stirred up, the first person to enter the water was healed. Jesus meets a man who cannot walk to the water. When he tells Jesus of his problem, Jesus heals him. It's controversial, since the healing takes place on the Sabbath.
Lost's castaways in one of two parallel storylines survive the explosion of the "Jughead" bomb, only to find their colleague, Sayid, bleeding to death from gunshot wounds. The mysterious Jacob, killed in the season finale, appears to Hurley and tells him to take Sayid to "the temple."
This mysterious heart of the island contains a pool of water, which immediately made me--and my friend Matt Swaim, fellow devotee of the show--to think of John 5. This pool's waters are troubled, stirred up and murky. When our heroes arrive with the dying Sayid, he's placed into the waters, even though the temple attendants seem unsure what will happen. They hold Sayid beneath the water, prompting his friends to protest that he's being drowned. And, indeed, Sayid, carried out (in the image of a crucifixion) is dead. Dr. Shephard's attempts to resuscitate him fail. But then, surprisingly, Sayid comes back to life.
Lots of explanations remain to unravel the mystery of this scene in the Lost story arc, but once again the show's creators have drawn on our Christian imagery--the place of healing, our understanding of Baptism, g
oing into the waters of the baptismal pool (the photo here is of an ancient baptismal pool in Turkey), where we die with Christ and rise again.
Plenty of lesser quality films and television programs have used Christian imagery; much of it in the service of story lines without a lot of value. But the quality of the storytelling on Lost offers us something worth our attention. Being a Lost viewer entitles us to return the favor we've been given by the show's creators: We can appreciate and make use of the story's characters and plotlines to reference the truths of our faith. As we watch the characters challenged by where and when they are, learning and growing despite their sins and failings, we can appreciate who we are as people--seeking through our choices to become our truest selves. And that is what the truth of our faith teaches us: God is calling us, through grace, to become who we were created to be, people of compassion and love, responding to the love we have been shown by our Creator.

Rita Heikenfeld's Ultimate Buffalo Chicken Dip
Find more great Super Bowl recipes at abouteating.com.
1 8-ounce package cream cheese, cut into cubes (or you can soften it and cover entire bottom of dish)
2 cups cooked chicken (a store-bought rotisserie chicken works best), shredded
1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce or less to taste
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup blue cheese dressing
1/4 to 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 300°F. Spread cheese in an 8x8" dish or pie plate. Combine the shredded chicken, wing sauce and butter, and pour over the cream cheese-filled dish or pie plate. Top with just enough blue cheese dressing and mozzarella cheese to cover (adding too much cheese will cause a thick skin to form that will make eating the dip difficult once the cheese cools). Heat the dip in the oven for 20 minutes. Serve with Scoops (Tortillas or Fritos), celery sticks, etc. alongside for dipping. Serves 8.

... and All I Got was Tim Tebow
I'm sure we've all read everything there is to read about Tim Tebow and his Superbowl commercial, so I am going to limit my Tebow comments to this: Good job, young man.
No, what has struck me most in this brouhaha over a man pointing out that when his mother was told to abort, what she would have aborted was him, is the response of feminist lawyer Gloria Allred.
The California attorney wrote to the head of CBS threatening to file a complaint against the network for not upholding advertising standards.
What standards might the ad violate, one may well wonder. After all, none of the people complaining about the ad have seen it, and we are talking the Superbowl -- where the internet hosting company GoDaddy has created an annual tradition by featuring the nearest thing to a topless woman its advertising companies can manage.
What standards? Why, truth in advertising! Allred says that if the ad doesn't say that abortion was illegal in the Philippines at the time (as it still is), then the ad is misleading. In other words, Allred is insinuating that Mrs. Tebow didn't choose not to have an abortion, she was forced to not have one. I guess it was impossible for the American woman to get from the Philippines to her home country, the United States, where abortion was legal.
In a Fox interview response to Allred, Focus on the Family CEO Jim Daly said that "the other side" could easily make its own ad and run it by CBS.
Something tells me that "I wanted an abortion, but all I got was Tim Tebow" wouldn't go over well.

Raiders of the LOST Arc: A Leap of Faith
In anticipation of the season premiere of Lost, I watched some previous episodes, guided by Entertainment Weekly's "Doc" Jeff Jensen, who's written extensively about the program. As often happens in Lost, characters and dialogue in different episodes echoed each other. In this case, a story in an earlier season about John Locke, the show's "man of faith," who came to the island in a wheelchair, and found his ability to walk restored. He quickly became attracted to the island's mystique, and began to believe there was something special calling him to discover new truths about himself. His former life was very much the opposite!
Even before the fall which put him in a wheelchair, Locke's personal faith had been shattered by events in his life--especially the betrayal by a man who posed as his father. When Locke meets a woman in a therapy group who seeks to become his friend, and affirms his journey of self-identity and strength, Locke resists. The woman, Helen, tells him to take "a leap of faith."
Watching the program over this past weekend, I suddenly remembered where in Lost I heard that phrase in another context. Last season, as the returned survivors of Oceanic 816 meet the enigmatic Eloise Hawking, she explains how they can return to the island. Dr. Jack Shephard, leader of the group, remains skeptical--the "man of science." Hawking urges him to take "a leap of faith." The same episode, set in a Catholic church, depicts a painting of "Doubting Thomas," the apostle who wanted proof of Jesus' resurrection. It is left to the morally corrupt Benjamin Linus to explain Thomas to Jack!
For me, Lost is about the way we human beings look at the world, and the choices we must make. These choices are set in the midst of the complex web of human relationships we all share. While our lives may not have the multitude of "coincidental" connections which seem to surround the characters in Lost, we are realize so often how interrelated we all are.
Lost helps us to appreciate our questions: Why am I here? What are my choices? What is my own destiny? People of faith have always sought answers to these crucial questions. In the Christian context, we may be "Doubting Thomases," seeking proof. But remember (as Ben reminds Jack) Thomas also had the courage to follow Christ to his death. That truly takes "a leap of faith."
I'm looking forward to the insights--spiritual and otherwise--which await us in Lost's final season!

Raiders of the LOST Arc: Getting LOST
What is it about this ridiculously complex show that has captivated so many? I think two things - the Humanity and the Divinity. Let me 'esplain.
THE HUMANITY
LOST has an unparalleled cast of characters, each of them as unique as the next. The cross-section of humanity in this series is impressive to say the least. It traverses the globe, it splashes a host of colors on its palate, and gives us a taste of as many languages. It makes Gilligan's Island look like vanilla pudding (come to think of it...)
LOST has an unparalleled cast of characters, each of them as unique as the next. The cross-section of humanity in this series is impressive to say the least. It traverses the globe, it splashes a host of colors on its palate, and gives us a taste of as many languages. It makes Gilligan's Island look like vanilla pudding (come to think of it...)
LOST is all of us and all of us are LOST. Each of us too seeks a way off of
the tiny island of ourselves and into the mysterious ocean of the Other.
For the past five seasons, we've been trying to find out who the survivors are and why they are so connected to each other - the doctor, convict, con-artist, sailor, former child soldier, beauty queen, rock star, unwed mom, married couple, and Hurley (I love Hurley). We've joined this motley crew of Oceanic 815 on a journey into their own memories as dense as the jungle that surrounds them, and vicariously we've been invited to do the same.
LOST is a mass of humanity, each with their own story of wounds and regrets, of shining moments too, of heroic choices and self-sacrifice, all seeking answers, just like us. It's humanity seeking Divinity; the Mystery of All Mysteries that shapes our very existence. But what they find on the island is never just a simple answer. It's simply more questions.... just like us.
THE DIVINITY
THE DIVINITY
The Synchronicity, the Smoke Monster, the Time Travel, the Healing Powers of the Island are all ultimately mysteries. I think this may be the dividing line between those who love LOST and those who hate it. (There's really no in between is there?) In the realm of the Divine, mysteries can only be experienced, not fully explained. Some of us are captivated by this, like John Locke. In season 2, when he is face to "face" with the Mysterious Smoke Monster, he cries out... "It's beautiful." Others among us are frustrated by this, like Jack Sheppard. The last thing he would call this Mystery is beautiful. Jack doesn't want to feel the Mystery, he wants to fix it.

This "Cloud of Unknowing" either makes us cough in confusion or cry out in admiration.
Throughout the show, just when we think we might have a firm grasp on something or someone, it slips away. But don't we always keep watching? Do we really want to know, or is it enough to see here and now "through a glass darkly"? The charm, I think, of LOST lies in this mystery. It's exciting to see a glimmer of the Unexplained in television again. For such is life. Mystery upon mystery as we grow older and older, circling about the island of our own personal enigmas and with each passing turn, seeing perhaps a Hand at work, guiding us to some place, unravelling the knot in our minds and hearts as we live each day in its turn. The Christian comfort here is that the Hand guiding us in real life is not so fallible or fallen as a Benjamin Linus (man, he's evil), or Charles Whitmore (man, he's... I'm not sure yet) but this Hand is Good. And it's a pierced hand that knows the enigma of human suffering.
OK, buckle up. We're making our approach. Flight attendants prepare for landing. Be sure to keep your seat in an upright position and store all carry on luggage securely. This could be a bumpy reentry! Who's knows where (or when) we'll end up tonight!!

Catholic Music for Haiti
They didn't get a telethon on every station, but Catholic artists at AfterMassRecords are joining their secular brothers and sisters and donating profits from music downloads to Haiti relief.
AMR's Sampler Platter Volume 2 is a downloadable "album" of songs by the label's artists.
All proceeds will go to Catholic Relief Services for their work in Haiti.
You'll get 15 tracks by Popple (acoustic folk/rock), Move Merchants (hip hop), manuel3 (jazz/soul), Last Day (contemporary rock), singer/songwriter Chris Padgett, the Lee Roessler Band (pop rock), and more.
You also get two high-resolution videos, including the very cool Eucharistic Adoration:Reverse Momentum, which you can preview at the AMR site or on Youtube.
There are two download options: one for any amount of money you want to donate, and one for "no money: will pray."
If you've never checked out the contemporary Catholic music at AMR, now's a great time to give them a try.
