George Lucas commented on Anakin Skywalker’s beliefs that fueled his decision to pursue the dark side and become Darth Vader: “[Anakin’s] rationalization is ‘Everyone is after power. Even the Jedi are after power.’ Therefore he thinks, ‘They’re all equally corrupt now …'” In the movie, Revenge of the Sith, when Anakin is fighting his mentor, Obi-Wan Kenobi, in response to Kenobi saying, “Anakin, Chancellor Palpatine is evil!” Anakin says, “From my point of view, the Jedi are evil!” Is this the widespread perspective of the evil, that everyone is chasing power, and all are equally corrupt? Therefore is it duplicitous and hypocritical for anyone to think they themselves are not inherently evil? What is Creator’s perspective?370 views0 answers0 votes

Darth Vader, seemingly unlike his master, Emperor Darth Sidious, was always “conflicted” and torn between good and evil. Sidious commented on it many times, and his son Luke Skywalker said, “Your thoughts betray you father, I feel the good in you, the conflict,” to which Vader replies, “There is no conflict.” But clearly, there was, and it resulted in his destroying the Emperor Sidious rather than his son, and in so doing changing the future of everything, and marking the turning point in his rehabilitation. In order for such a turn back from the darkness and to the light, must there be an internal “conflict resolution?” What is Creator’s perspective?407 views0 answers0 votes
