Rocky M, NC Riff here's something to bake your noodle...

If Anakin was so strong with the Force before being taught how to control it, would it beg to reason that he was destined to fail as a Jedi? I mean as a Force Adept you give yourself fully to the moment and your feelings but the Jedi Order commands you to remain passive and seek enlightenment. Having relied on his feelings so long he could not turn them off therefore could never truly reach that passive state all Jedi achieve... ( hence the young age Jedi begin their training )

Yes Anakin may have learned more insights into the Force as a whole through his Jedi training but maybe the very structure of the Jedi Order is what causes Anakin to feel as though he betrays the Jedi by feeling too much... such as love...

Just a few random thoughts....

No noodle baking, as I agree with you.

 

As Qui-Gon said, nothing happens by accident.

 

So if "Nothing happens by accident" and Anakin is destined from he beginning to fail as a Jedi Knight does this mean it was the "Will of the Force" to cut down the number of Force users ( Jedi purge ) thereby bringing balance to the Force.

Or does it mean the Jedi are wrong and only through feeling and one's own perception of the Force can one bring balance to oneself thereby bringing balance to the Force?

Ah, my head hurts where's my Blue Milk...

It depends on how you perceive the word "accident."

 

Could you please define the meaning of the word "is"?

 

Only if you define "define."

 

All of this is making my head hurt.........I need some of Lodreh's blue milk now (spiked)!

 

Jerri, thats what LED to all this confusion! ROFL!!!

 

Riff, do what you want with me but leave the Blue Milk alone, it's innocent I tell you. Speaking of which... /gulp /gulp /gulp
