Of course I would have pushed the button.

I was speaking to a friend about this, and I agree with what my friend said: they had the faith thing backwards.

Locke was saying Jack had to take a leap of faith to press the button. No, that's wasn't the leap of faith. The leap of faith would have been to let the timer run out. They already knew what happened when the button got pressed. It had been done a million times before.

So I just didn't understand the whole conversation and why it was an issue with Jack and the whole "man of faith" theme they had going on with Locke.
