Akkub Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I find it amusing that the Jedi Code condems romantic relationships, but yet; you come across offspring from Jedi, more often than one would think. Including Miss Shan, is a product of such "coupling". Power to Jedi teaching by Jolee Bindo... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aximand Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) Romance doesn't have to be involved to have a baby, and "ladies of the night" generally don't care who they service. This filter is stupid. Edited March 15, 2012 by Aximand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanorDM Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) The Council more so then the Code disproves of attachments. Even then the council changes it's stance on it from time to time, typically depending on how many Jedi there are. Shortly after the sacking of the Jedi temple they were more lax about such a thing because when two Jedi have a kid, the kid is likely to be force sensitive. But when the number of Jedi is relativity high they become more conservative about it again. Edited March 15, 2012 by VanorDM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the Great Sith War, they became a unified organization under the Jedi High Council, which began to reinterpret the Jedi Code. Among the new regulations were the prohibition of marriage and the idea that Jedi must begin their training as very young children. Currently it is 3,641 BBY. While it is frowned upon, marriage is completely okay during this time period because they are still in the process of organizing themselves. Interestingly enough, when Luke starts the New Jedi Order and things are again disorganized. The rules on marriage and familial attachments are again bent.

DarthRavnos Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Also, keep in mind there are rare cases of Force sensitive people having children. And those children going to the temple to become Jedi. Take Anakin Skywalker for an example. So not all Jedi are products of other Jedi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You took my post out of context. Anakin is an example of someone not born of "Jedi" heritage. I didn't mean his mother was Force sensitive. Point being Jedi's are not the only one's capable of making Jedi's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkCelestial Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Shmi Skywalker wasn't Force Sensitive at all. Unless Lucas changed his mind AGAIN and made her Force Sensitive. I thought in the book they said she was strong in the force but not nearly as powerful as Anakin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aximand Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) I thought in the book they said she was strong in the force but not nearly as powerful as Anakin. Not from what I remember. I could be wrong, though. I'd check but my Phantom Menace book is in a box in an attic half a country away.

Celcionna Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Well, in my opinion the Jedi code is somewhat flawed. There is no emotion, there is peace could be agued that peace is an emotion and so that part doesn't make sense. So, in my opinion, as long as you just love someone, and don't allow those feelings to turn into passion (like Anakin did with Padme) you will be alright. It is very hard to do as some of you probably already know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dar-Ell Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet the Force. Odan-Urr was an idiot. The original code, as written above, does not deny the Jedi these things called emotions. Rather it states that "though I feel emotions like anger and love I shall act calmly" and "though others or even I myself do not know something, I shall strive to teach and learn" and "though the world spins with great happening I shall remain calm and objective" and "Though things are fractured around me I shall work to bring peace and justice" and "I accept that there is death, but when someone or something dies they become part of something much greater than myself" Honestly, the whole, "There is no" aspect was a huge mistake. My opinion but hey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably because the Grandmaster at the time it was FIRST misinterpreted it just couldn't get any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, we all could be getting some in TOR without Darkside points if it wasn't for that jerkwad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
