    I only think Jake is Roland's son, not the part about Jake=Jack.

    Actually, I think that made his case a little stronger.

    he was his adopted son, in my opinion

    the question is vague, but i answered no because hes not blood related.

    I cant believe anyone would vote no in this poll. Yes, Roland is not Jakes biological father. A father is a person who cares for a child day in and day out. And though Rolands relationship with the boy is much shorter than Jakes biological dad he showed much more care and respect day in and day out than Jakes coke head work addicted dad. If Jake himself calls Roland his father then thats the end of story.

    She says, "Lovin's all I bring"
    And it's her loving that's a wonderful thing.
    Lovin' yes we are, it's such a wonderful thing
    When two fit it makes you think
    See us both in the black

    but, if we understand the word "father" in this sense, isn't the answer obvious and the question pointless?

    He even called him Father.
    Yes even more than Roland was his Dinh, I believe that Roland was his true father.

    I think the love that they have for each other would be of a true father and son.

    And if the quest is an endless loop, on some level of the Tower this could be so.

    And all forum topics are basically useless.

    like said before, the question is vague, it took me 30 min to decide what the hell to vote.
