LOST Theories (will have spoliers)

Been doin gsome reading, there is a school of thoughtthat Mother = Monster.

I have to admit, when she first appeared to find Claudia by the stream the scene was all to similar to when the smoke appeared behind Eko as he was drinking from a stream. Then there was the way that she told Claudia that she would find any other people that had arrived at the island. And of course the way that the village was destroyed, people killed and - most oddly - the well filled in.

When she warns Jacob that going into the Glowing Cave of Death (and life, and rebirth) is a fate "worse than death" that she is speaking from experience?

To counterpoint this, we see the light in the cave go out when MiB is sent down there by Jacob, presumably this would have happened if Mother had gone down there. Does the light come back? We've seen it when Locke/Ben turned the Donkey Wheel so perhaps!?
