Okay so we know that Anakin was the Chosen One, and that his midichlorians were off the chart, more then 20,000/Yoda. Sidious also states that he will become more powerful then Yoda and Sidious.

So how powerful would the Chosen One have been, if he never suffered the problems, ie He never fell in Love with Padme, Turned t the Dark Side...

What could he have done that other Jedi couldn't...?

Great question. GL has stated that he would have become twice as powerful as Palps who depending on who you ask was the most powerful Sith of all time.

So at level who knows what he could do. Almost anything I'd imagine.

If 'Rhett' can yank a Star Destroyer out of the Sky, then an unsuited Vader would have used planets to play Cricket...

But what WOULD he have done? What is the point of having a god in human form? It's really pointless, and Anakin would still have become an oppressor, by his mere existence. A male is instinctively driven to dominate. And human males have testosterone and that is, basically hormonal aggression.

I have to question: to what end do Jedi or Sith have these powers? Ultimately, to serve themselves, and their might. That is the way of nature, the weak succumb to the strong.

Dominance is dominance whether clothed in altruistic intention or power grabbing.

Who knows what Anakin could have done if everything progressed properly. I don't think that any Jedi or Sith could stand up to him, he would probably just use them as his pet then cast them off without a care.

Plus, Sith use their power for themselves, always seeking more power. Jedi use their power to protect others and do not seek more power, but are content that they inherently have. Not to say that Jedi are perfect, this is their goal, some don't always live to it without falling to the Dark Side. Jedi are human and are thus not perfect. Hormones might be part of the problem, but are not the whole problem. Humans are, by nature, corrupt and will make mistakes, no matter how good they try to be. That's just the way things are.

OK...

That was ironic right?

What is the point of power, if not to use it for good. I think that is more along the lines you are looking for. Not all use their power to dominate the weak(er). Not everyone serve themselves and their might. Some die for their cause to protect others.

As Masssster SSS said, you must be a Sith: only a Sith deals in absolutes tongue

He would become a God. A supermagician, the one living being remained in the galaxy.

Here is how I see it, and this might not even be an orthodox view.

But, the number of midichlorians does not equal power to use the Force. Otherwise Anakin should have whooped Kenobi's behind from one side of the galaxy to the other, easily. I know midichlorians enable you to use the Force, and allows allows the Force to use you. But what I noticed, is that the number of midichlorians seems corrispond to the amount of affect they will have on the Force itself.

Anakin has the most, because he's meant to balance the Force. Palptine has the second most because he affects the descisions of Anakin and also his son. Luke has (possibly) the same amount as Anakin because he will affect him, enough that he returns to the Light. Yoda has almost the amount of Palpatine, because he affects Anakin and Luke, but to a lesser extent. Some of this has to to do with destiny, and what part that person is to play.

Not godlike power. wink

Anakin would have been the most powerful Jedi ever to walk the galaxy (how does one walk the galaxy?) He would have outdistanced everyone else by miles and miles. But of course he would have had to get control over himself...

I thought it was already falling due to gravity and internal damage, so that he caused it to hit something other than himself.

Yep. Anyway, we know that Anakin had the potential to be 2x of Palpatine. Whether or not that would make him a 'force god' is completely dependent on what you think the Emperor was capable of.

But was are they capable of though? I mean we see Yoda effortlessly levitate Luke's X-Wing, and both he and Sids were playing Force frissbees with the Senate Pods. Sids also could shoot out lightning that will blast you across the room.

How more powerful can you get?

Anakin was succesfully landing crashing ships after just thirteen years as a Jedi; he did it in both ROTS and the Obsession comic. Mace Windu considered this to be virtually impossible for anyone but Anakin. Similarly, Mace was amazed at his solo defeat of Dooku.

Mace also says that Anakin is already arguably the most powerful Jedi at the time of ROTS in the ROTS novel, and that he's still getting strongly. So what are Anakin's limits? Only what his mind isn't capable of conceiving of.
