well actually it's not that u can't have emotions, it's just that u don't let those emotions take control over u. I think being a jedi would be cool, not just because of the awsome powers, but because u would learn to be at peace with urself and everything else, thus improving ur way of life, and probably others too.

True I would choose to try to have a family with another Jedi. That way my children would most likely be Jedi and protect themselves. If not then keep them well protected other ways.

I agree with Devlin. I think the Ideas of the New Jedi Order are more for me. They are alloud to have families and taught to embrace love. To be able to have your own family and still Be a Jedi Knight and have that power to help people.

Becoming a Jedi sounds like a more interesting career choice than any available to me right now, so yes, I would. They have some flawed ideals, but the Jedi's intentions are good, so I think I could get along.

I'm with devlin :)

Is the question "If you were force sensitive would you become a jedi?"

If so then I think i would, prefer to learn about the power in a controled environment than blast things to pieces just because something annoys me.

If the question "Would you like to have the ability to use the force and become a jedi"

As in, Jedi or Normal person, then what devlin said applies :P

Hmm it's hard to say, the idea of being a Jedi Knight is really cool. But the fact that I couldn't really have emotions etc. is a bit of a downfall :|

Though I guess I'd be used to that since I'd have to have started from birth...so ya what the heck I'd be a Jedi if I could ^_^

This is a great topic that I've actually thought about before. I would love to be a jedi. They are the protectors of life, and I myself have a great love for life...to be it's protector would be an honor and give immense meaning to my existence.

By nature I am a peacefull man, and while I would worry about losing my temper I would hope that a connection with the force would keep me in balance with my emotions.

However, there is the downside of this ideal...and that is that as a Jedi in the time of the Republic you are not allowed physical 'attatchments' such as a family or spouse. This in itself is enough for me to question my decision on wanting to be a jedi.

In the New Jedi Order books the jedi are allowed to take husbands and wives. Love is not something that they frown upon. I agree with this, I believe that being in love only makes a person want to fight harder in the name of life and peace. So if we take this perspective of the life of a jedi then my decision would certainly be yes.

So, Jedi of the Republic...no.
Jedi of the New Republic...yes!
