Dark VS Light Side of the Force

Okay about time I edited this thread after 1/2 year of life.

Can you imagine SW if there was only the Dark or the Light side??? It would *definitely* _STINK_!
However, which is more powerful? I think it's the Dark Side:

=> More Jedi fall to the d/s than Sith/Dark Jedi go to the l/s (MANY more)

=> Look at the duels (in the movies). You see the Sith being calm (prolly fighting more than one Jedi) and the Jedi being ready to shit on themselves :P

=> The d/s force powers are offensive (used to kill :cool: ) whereas the l/s force powers are defensive. And we all know the best defense is offense ;)

=> NORMALLY, when some Jedi fights a Sith the Sith has the Force Power advantage. Not many Jedi can absorb D/S Force Powers. They must be really trained, and that's unusual. OK Yoda is the force beast (I mean he handles the force like no-one else can, hmm, maybe like Palpatine, just maybe, but prolly a bit more) so he was really cool defending against Dooku's force powers. But, see, Dooku was less trained than Yoda in the Force and still he could attack him alright without losing (lightsaber fight is something else, not concerning the Force Sides). So as you can see less trained D/Sers can beat the hell outta a Jedi using the force alone :D :P (don't include Yoda eh)

=> And well, after seeing the movies, haven't you noticed how much cooler the Sith are than the Jedi? :)


******BTW: Who wants to see a Yoda VS Palpatine fight on ep3!!!???******

No mojohojojomo, Sidious WAS winning till vader destroyed him.
And the dark side uses anger and agression as base powers together with the force. And they have also a lust for power and greed, so they use the force to help themselves, not others like the Jedi. but Is still think the powers are equally powerfull. unless some 1 comes with a good argument.

But Darth Vader (Turning back to Anakin Skywalker) did help Luke in the process.

Maybe it is something of discipline.
The Dark Side just lets out its anger, an easy way out of things. In their anger, perhaps they, not with a lot of discipline, waste some of that Force energy recklessly w/o knowing.
The Light Side has much more discipline, its users have to control their inner feelings.
By being with peace with oneself, one can use all of his/her power on their objective. :alliance:

Well, they can't be equal, or the fight would rage on forever. I reckon the lightside is more powerful, otherwise Luke would be dead and the Emporer would rule all :D.

Both have to be equal. If there is a dark side and a light side, to be in equilibrium (That word brings back AP Chemistry :D) they both have to be equal.

I actually believe that both sides are equal.

If you look at the cosmology of Star Wars it's strictly dualistic meaning, that objectively the two sides are indifferent and neccesary to each other. At the same time the entire cosmos is made up of both sides, the one being more prevalent in some areas than the other. This means that you can't have one without the other (no life without death, no good without evil etc.). The two sides are valueless in themselves, but they are given value by the sentients who experience them. When the dark side are considered evil, it is because sentient being consider death, suffering and chaos to be bad things (understandably). Likewise the light side is cosidered good because the abovementioned sentient being appreciate life, peace, harmony and order. The question of the nature of the force is therefore very much an ethical question. When the dark side is viewed as easier than the light, it is because the feelings ascociated with the dark side (fear, anger, hatred) is easyer accessed than the feeling ascociated with the light side (serenity, compassion, altruism), and not because of the nature of the force itself (which is neutral).

the dark is all about power whereas the light is all about bringin peace 2 the galaxy and stopping the dark, therefore dark has 2 b more powerful but if u think th@light defeating dark makes light more powerful, it is nearly always because of light outnumbering dark.

Strength lies within the Darkness of the darkside, but wisdom and perfection lies in the lightside. both sides has weaknesses, so none of them is best.

yeah maybe:confused:. if you got the ultimate offense does the deffense dosent matter:(. but if you got the ultimate deffense cant the ultimate offense heart you:D. but to become the strongest one most you have both offense and deffense i think that is what some means by "YOU MOST SEE THE DARK TO KNOW THE LIGHT";).

This is such a tuff question. Generally, d/s padawans can beat l/s padawans, cuz the d/s can be "learned" quicker. Yoda, however, owned Dooku, and had Dooku not through that huge pipe thing at Obi1 n Ani, Yoda wudda killed him. This makes it appear as tho the the force in itself is not stronger on either side, it just depends on the user.

The thing is, none of ^ matters. In the end, Luke brought Vader back to the Light, Vader then defeated Palpatine, and the Light Side won. The d/s may have been kickin the crap outta the l/s, but the final score is all that counts. Game: L/S :alliance:
