LIGHT SIDE DISCUSSION- Jedi Morality

heck, he's right about one of us 😄

I was just joshing, Lance... can you answer him, btw?

council orders first, but if someone needs help, that goes first

Sure thing.

I think that the Jedi Council both followed the lead of the Republic and maybe they also had their own reasons.

Like no wanting us to get involved so the Republic Senate doesn't frown upon the Jedi and their ways.

That wasn't the question. He said leaving that aside for now.

Then what's the question?

Bad timing, Lance, I was talking to yerss. Your answer was lovely.

Good to know.

BTW I hate it when it allows two people to post on the same thread at the exact same time. Don't you?

This was Brith's question, yerss:

"At the start of Ush's second story the Jedi Council instructed the Lightsiders not to interfere with the war on Damogran. Without getting into arguments about whether you should follow the Council or follow your heart what are people's views on why the Council decided not to interfere? Do you think Mace, Yoda and that guy with the binary brain just followed the Republic's lead or do you think they had their own reasons why they thought you should not get involved."

And Lance- yes I do!

They should make something so it doesn't allow that. It would make things around here that much more organized.

your bro's question:

I think it was a lot of things combined, like Argentis (apperently), because if he lost his temper the Jedi would look bad

Right-oh.

Brith, *I* think it was Mace panicking because he thought the characters might notice he had just deleted Kamino from the archives...

All fair answers, though it does make Yoda and co sound a lot like politicians. Do you think that the Council could have chosen this path as they thought it would be the best way to resolve the conflict and not because they were concerned with the reputation of the Jedi?

All fair answers... except for the Mace answer.

What about my answer? What about my answer????????

Errr, Ill think about your answer Ush.

nah, I think the TPM-AOTC time is still a time where Jedi had an enormous reputation that they didn't need to defend

Remember what Obi Wan said "Don't do ANYTHING without consulting either the council or myself first."

The Jedi does not take the "law" into its own hands.

Once you are back in front of the council yerssot, you have quite a lot to atone for.

So speaks the Master!

What do you make of Brith's questions, Gundy?
