When you really think about it, the claims of Christ are almost as weird. An uncreated spirit-God takes on flesh to save the world by dying in a Roman style execution, a salvation which he extends to everyone but allows them to reject. I think when it comes down to it, people convert to believe the Gospel for the same reason I watch lost. For the people they have come to care about. So really LOST and Christianity are almost parallels?

LOST
Ben Hoyer - Thursday, February 12, 2009
I have confessed to you all about my tuesday evening appointments with Biggest Loser. But I held back on my Wednesday meetings. I can keep quiet no longer. I am a LOST fan. As the show concluded this week I thought, "man this show is weird." Today, at lunch, Chris and I talked over the show (dad and I got him hooked this fall). We decided the reason they keep us watching such a crazy plot is because of the crazy good character development. I probably watch lost, less to figure out the island and the time travel and the death threats, and more because I want to see want happens to these characters they've gotten me to care about.
