I really enjoyed the last episode. I wasn't too concerned with it being about the cast and not about the mythology, as I felt the island remaining mysterious left it with some character and not this monstrous deathtrap for everyone unfortunate enough to land on it. The show was to me more about the cast than the mythology anyway, the fragments of history surrounding it were nice, and I'd have loved to have known more, but I felt the end was justified in that the experience of the survivors on that island gave them a kindredship that remained after they all died. To me it was a beautiful ending to what was a confusing, but epic adventure nonetheless.
I probably wouldn't have enjoyed it as much had they explained away every detail of what made that island unique, what made each and every episode an edge of your seat, what's going to happen next situation. The mystery remains, for some other survivors to discover and more stories to tell.

"In our youth, we lacked the maturity, the decency to create gods better than ourselves so that we might have something to aspire to. Instead we are left with a host of deities who were violent, narcissistic, vengeful bullies who reflected our own values. Our gods could have been anything we could imagine, and all we were capable of manifesting were gods who shared the worst of our natures."-Me
"Atheism leaves a man to sense, to philosophy, to natural piety, to laws, to reputation; all of which may be guides to an outward moral virtue, even if religion vanished; but religious superstition dismounts all these and erects an absolute monarchy in the minds of men." – Francis Bacon
