it's just what you want to think, I personally think he lied to get anakin to join the dark side
Maybe
Well the old Jedi Prophecy says someone will come to restore balance, Plageius and the Sith probably dont take much thought of old Jedi Legends, But if he did influence them to create Anakin then why not a boy in the outer rim where Jedi no find.
It's likely if this was true they had no idea what he would be making would actualy turn out to be the Jedi Prophecy, thats messed up! he forsee's someone strong to kill the jedi w/ and creates him, unknowingly later to kill them to, you see its the whole frankenstein mess!
Becarfull what you create, even you may not be able to control it.
I really wouldn't believe what Palpatine was saying about his master...
except for the bit about his apprentice killing hum during his sleep.
It was probably just more lies to get anakin to join him.
DO you really think that would be the type of ability the sith would use?
And if his master did teach him everything he knew, why does he say to anakin that with his help they can achieve the power to do that?
I can't buy Palpatine knowing about Anakin and allowing him to be trained by the Jedi. All Mace Windu had to say was, "OK, we'll bring him before a judge," and Anakin doesn't turn, and Sidious' plan is unraveled. And if he could see into the future with such detail that he knew Anakin would turn, he could have also seen Vader betraying him.
And the fact that the creating life was mentioned in passing once and never again makes me believe it's not part of a major plot revelation. The focus was on saving people, not creating people. To me, it would be like Vader mentioning, "By the way, I'm your father," in passing or Yoda just blurting out, "Leia is your sister, " during a monologue. There was no build up and no pomp and circumstance on "influencing midichlorians to create life." It just doesn't seem like Lucas' style.
