I still don't know if it is the opinion that I hold since I don't quite know what to make of Shimi's miracle birth. Myth is full of spawned children but usually there is a preface for that - one that we don't get in SW. I would be further inclined if there was something more to her story than "Anakin doesn't have a dad (but he does have a mom)." Maybe if Qui-Gon had done a midichlorian count on her and said "wow, you have a freaky high residual MC count" or if there was more elaboration on the event or even surprise or suspicion voiced by anyone in the movies. As is we are left with the experience of immaculate conception being completely silent other than it seems to be a pretty accepted event in that time so long ago. Maybe there are other vergences in the force in the past that we don't know about? All this adds up to the SW-Geek in me to mean that it is speculation time!! Since nothing can be proven within the context of the movie any ideas that don't directly contradict canon are equally right and equally wrong. Now I just need to figure out what my own unsupportible theory on Anakin's birth will be and present it for public denouncement   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />  Maybe I will start with the idea that there were prior vergences in the force?</blockquote>
