[QUOTE="Staffan, post: 8455436, member: 907"] Yes, but the whole point of the show is that neither Order nor Chaos is [B]good[/B]. The Vorlons and Shadows don't [B]care[/B] about the younger species, they just want the other one to acknowledge that their way is better. And that's why the [B]other[/B] First Ones think they're both bad – they were supposed to guide the younger species and present them with options, but instead they became embroiled in a cold war with one another, and using the ones they were supposed to guide to wage proxy wars. The Vorlons embedded genes for telepathy in many species, to make them able to fight the Shadows. They also indoctrinated them so that they'd see Vorlons as holy creatures, in order to make them easier to manipulate.
