Perhaps Hanso has become a messianic figure in his own mind, and the Dharma Initiative is an effort to recreate mankind "in his own image." (Food for thought). Or one of Hanso's partners has placed himself in Jacob's role (messianic idea again, just using a different person).

I read that the producers have said that Dr. Marvin Candle/Mark Wickmund will make an appearance on the show, and not on a DHARMA computer screen or orientation film.
He was working with the De Groots, so maybe he is HIM, or Gerald De Groot is HIM, but Hanso is not on the Island if we are to believe the Lost Experience evidence.
My other theory is that the Others are the patients of DHARMA experiments who rebelled and took over a model society and twisted it to their own vision. HIM could be a former test subject.
Or they could all simply be other victims drawn to the Island over centuries or at least decades who had to accept that they were stuck there for good, because there's no way off the Island. A whole village of Rousseaus, maybe quite insane, just not wandering around the jungle aimlessly insane.
