ok, our posts are getting tangled here....i think the darkside is more of a personality thing....the force is an entity, but it needs a person with a dark personality to harness it that way....most jedi are good....there are only ever a couple of sith around, even with one or two in the wings, the numbers are pretty slim.....

the frame of reference is yoda's words
perhaps by lucas' habit of changing his mind, they dont hold as much weight,
but he states that the cave is "a domain of evil"
if it is that, and there is no one evil living in the cave, then the FORCE which embodies that cave is EVIL. thats my whole point, the dark side, according to yoda's words, is evil.
its not solid, but is not baseless either

This points out a problem with the PT compared to the OT:
Yoda describes it as an energy field created by all living things in Ep. 5, but in Ep.1 the Jedi talk about the will of the Force. Lucas tries to make things fit that don't.
but it COULD make sence, if he doesnt screw it up.
an energy field, but with a will.
my theory proposes two conflicting energy fields, good/evil yin/yang
always in conflict, guiding a being's will either way, depending on the path they follow.
"According to this theory, all things and phenomena in the universe contain two opposite aspects – Yin and Yang – which are, at the same time, both interdependent and in conflict."

im afraid there is no official yin and yang site, but any site you find describing the philosophy will tell you just this
