I can agree with you to an extent, but, if you take it to real life (rl) vs a game, I find it funny that people would not agree.
The "Force" aka, a hokey religion to some, a strict code to others, and even unheard of to some others is a form of organized religion. It all depends on the point of view that you get your facts from.
I live in the U.S. and history would tell me that everything my forefathers did was great and for the good of the country, at least that is what I was told. As I grew up I started to form my own opinions about what I felt was right or wrong.
This is just one planet, SW:TOR is an entire galaxy of cultures with unique beliefs that have spread out and done there best to further there own way of life. The entire concept of good vs evil...right vs wrong...left vs right... Scott Baio vs Chachie.. wait how did he get there...
anyway..
It truly comes down to point of view. If somebody thinks you are good/evil then It is up to them to decide otherwise, you can only be yourself.
