padme lost the will to live, as was clearly stated.
also clearly stated was the fact that had she not lost the will to
live she would have easily recovered.
ummm... wait a minute.... fundamental here.... of course sex can't be forbidden... how in the world then are jedi even born!!!!!! unless ALL jedi were born like anakin, immaculately (Spelling?) supposedly without a father????
No, i think he has a point. He is saying that only people who are sensitive in the force are chosen to be jedi. We know that this force sensitivity is genetic. Now if the jedi never have sex, then there would be no more force sensitive people. We are talking about jedi having casaul sex with people, they become pregnant, and make new jedi babies. Otherwise, the force sensitivity would die off wouldn't it?
They aren't allowed to have sex, its as clear as a bell yet still there's debate lol Unless the Jedi Youngling numbers start to decrease and they want to get more "midi-chlorians" out there.... eh hem
Shmi Skywalker wasn't Force sensitive...and look what she got! The most Force-sensitive lad in the universe!
I don't think that not force-sensitive people have less chance to get force-sensitive children. who knows even Jedi could get not-force sensitive children...there is no proof of that.

I think to a certain degree everyone is force sensitive, but there can be exceptions when it comes to children. Its difficult to know how its all supposed to work
force sensativity may be genetic, but that doesnt mean its necessary in any way for jedi to breed. thats a poor leap in logic.
however i will agree that it only makes sense that the jedi would breed, since it saves alot of searching. ill even go so far as to suggest that yoda had that in mind in his advice to luke and in turn leia. but i dont want to get ush's nickers in a twist again, as is the case when ever i bring up my 'yoda's revised code' theory, so ill just drop that
we dont know that. in fact i would go so far as to say that she was, and thats why it was the will of the force that she carry the chosen one. but we dont know.
absolutely. in fact, all living things are force sensative to some degree, since midichlorians exists in everything organic. whether or not that sensitivity is conscious is another thing entirely, and having the power to control it....
Then explain the next to me...why was Qui-Gon capable of sensing that Anakin was force-sensitive, but wasn't able to sense if Shmi was. Qui-Gon knew that she wasn't...that is why he was curious after his father. A kid with such a high midi-chlorian count probably had a Force-sensitive parent, but it wasn't Shmi...

he sensed the force through anakins actions. he felt when anakin USED the force. thats why he never suspected anakin to be force capable until long after meeting him. that and learning that anakin was able to pod race.
shmi never used the force. so its very possible that she was force capable, but never had the opportunity or circumstance to show it, or even know about it.
Anakin never did an action with the Force...Qui-Gon just never concentrated on him...you have to concentrate on a person to sense his Force capabilities...Qui-Gon was intrigued with Anakin because he was able to race pods...but he never did an action with the Force.

quigon never had a clue until he learned of anakin could pod race, and that no human without the power of precognition could pull that off. its spelled out in the script quite clearly. and even then he had to give him a blood test.
it was only when anakin was racing that (we can only assume) that qui gon could actually sense his power. but quigon learned before that, and completely without a sense of anything in anakin, but rather a sense of destiny
I dont think he would make assumptions as "he can see things before they happen" just because he thought "the kid has to be Force sensitive otherwise he wouldn't be able to race a pod". Qui-Gon should have sensed that...

assumed, yes. thats exactly what he did.
that, combined with his revelation that it was the will of the force that brough them together.
anakin did not use the force until the pod race. there is no way for a jedi to sense another's power when they are not using the force. thats why quigon had his blood tested. if he sensed the force in anakin there would have been no need to, would there?
