I like Locke ok. And as I have watched the show my feelings toward his character have gone up and down. Just like almost every other character on the show. (I have a couple that I hate and always have so I can see where your coming from.)
I like him because he makes mistakes. He is wise in a lot of ways, but he also is very easy to con at times. He has problems with authority and I can relate to him in this way. I think he takes responsibility for his actions, and is truly sorry when he messes up, but he doesn't dwell on it. He moves forward. I see him as a searcher, he is looking for "it", he doesn't know what "it" is, but he is looking. I think he is a great character to deal with philosophical ideas.
