An oppressive and extreme response of people who are threatened by honest communication. When you teach people that communication is not a way to solve problems they have with others, that only leaves violence in their repetoire when they get older....  [Read More]

Actually, maybe the apprentice is not more powerful as such, just more versatile in how he uses what power he has. We never heard anything about Revan combining force powers, but it was said that in total power he was "the heart of the force.&qu...  [Read More]

And the fact that this is being decided by committee? Shouldn't gods will be absolute? Seems to be further evidence that religion is a human endeavor. The New Testament is pretty consistent in calling for both to be present in believers who claim t...  [Read More]

How is being a gray jedi taking the easy way out? All the peer pressure is to join the Jedi/Sith. Gray Jedi don't share in the political power of the other two groups. Gray Jedi don't have the sheer number or power of force using allies to call on i...  [Read More]

I think you presume a great deal with this statement. Possibly true, but no more than anyone else in this thread. If you claim to be an atheist, by definition, you presume about something you have no personal experiences with (i.e. motivations for h...  [Read More]

Another reason would be fear that ones life has no meaning. The notion that you are a part of a grand scheme cooked up by a supreme being is another potential source of comfort. Honestly, I think this is the main reason. If someone is an atheist, t...  [Read More]
