[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 7000029, member: 4936"] Kacela nods. "You're right. I'm not explaining it very well. It's a little hard to concentrate at the moment." She smiles. "But yes, the Dark Side is not a firm line, but a path. Not one monumental choice, but a series of choices. And those choices start out very small, very innocent seeming." "As for all life being sacred...some Jedi do feel that way, but not all. What I learned was that, in the Force, all life is linked. Is in some way one. If I injure another living being, I am harming all other life as well, including myself, even if only in a small way. So the harm I do to another being must be weighed against the harm that being is doing. It's not something we can quantify though, or extract numbers for. This is why a Jedi must trust their feelings and intuition, and try to listen to the will of the Force." "Just...these are questions that the Order doesn't have a doctrine on, beyond the simple observation that the Force links all life. Different Jedi masters have their own interpretations, which don't always agree on the details. Some Jedi follow a pacifist path. Far more try to intervene, to limit or contain the damage that other people, in their pain and ignorance, can cause." Kacela reaches out to squeeze Jihahna's shoulder. "The good news is that because the Dark Side is a path, made of a string of choices...it can be turned away from, by changing the choices you make. In practice, this is very hard, and some masters say that there is a point of no return. I don't believe that's true though.
