Star Wars Philosophy

[Lefty Scaevola]

Regarding Dark Side/"Light Side"/balance in the force, consider a quote of ERU, in my signature.

"And thou, Melkor, shalt see that no theme may be played that hath not its uttermost source in me,"

Verily, the Dark side is an integral part of the force, which can never be banished, only managed. The recurring blindness of the the "light Side" Jedi to machinations on the dark side, when any 11 year old SCi Fi or even a wargaming fan could do an Admiral Ackbar and see the obvious traps and plots, is because they try to obliterate and banish the Dark Side, and are oblivious to it, rather than carefully watching it both within and without themselves.
