Yes, there have been many blogs written about the subject. But it's time I spoke out about it. I, for one do not buy into the idea of Anakin being created by a Sith Lord. We are all familiar with the ideas of Darth Plagueis or Darth Sidious creating Anakin Skywalker. Reason being that the prophecy of the one who will bring balance to the Force is a Jedi prophecy.

Let's look at this logically. First let's talk about the idea of Darth Plagueis creating Anakin Skywalker. Has anybody ever notice the fact that Darth Maul is older than Anakin Skywalker at least ten to fifteen years? Has anybody ever thought of it? I'm sure there are people who have actually thought of it, but I know that there are others who totally overlooked it. It has been established so many times by George Lucas and other members of Lucasfilm that there is never at any given time no more than two Sith Lords at the same time. If anybody is going to try to convince us otherwise, they are way over their heads. There has never been in any of the Star Wars films more than two Sith Lords at the same time. The rule of two is put in for a reason. That is to protect the Sith Order from destroying each other. It is one rule they have to follow if they are to survive. It was also been established by George Lucas that traditional future Sith apprentices are trained from birth. Count Dooku and Anakin Skywalker were exceptions. Dooku was an exception because Sidious already had his plan into motion and you can learn that from Lucas in the AOTC Audio Commentary and Lucas will clearly state that Sidious should have started an with an infant. Of course Anakin is also an exception because Sidious needed an apprentice right away to finish his plan to destroy the Jedi Order. Of course that doesn't go without saying that Sidious molded Anakin slowly over the years to become a Sith apprentice because of his Force potential.

Anakin was a little boy when we were introduced to Darth Maul. Which means Maul is a young apprentice possibly not any older than twenty-five years old. He could be twenty if we want to push his age any younger, but probably not younger than that. The fact remains that Maul is many years older than Anakin. If you are still wondering where I am going with this, I would just keep listening because I'm getting there. As revealed, Sidious killed his master, Darth Plagueis in his sleep, thus becoming the Sith Master. He then in tradition takes on a new apprentice, and that would be Darth Maul. Darth Maul is many years older than Anakin Skywalker, so that would mean Anakin isn't even conceived yet. Whether or not Plagueis knew the power to create life or not remains a mystery.

For all we know, Sidious said that just to get Anakin's attention and open his mind to the Dark Side of the Force. You do realize that Sith Lords will use lies and deceit to get what they want. Clearly Sidious did read Anakin's mind about Padme, and revealed that he knew that to Anakin when he was trying to recruit him to the Dark Side. If you don't remember this, I suggest that you go back and watch ROTS and carefully watch the part where Sidious recruits Anakin and Anakin takes out his lightsaber to kill Sidious. It's also clear that Anakin never told Sidious that he was afraid that Padme was going to die. So that would mean Sidious read Anakin's mind and used that knowledge to get him to open his mind to the Dark Side a step while watching the play on Coruscant. Enough to have Anakin think and ponder about the idea of learning the Dark Side to try to save Padme.

As for Sidious creating Anakin, why didn't he tell Anakin? Wouldn't that have softened Anakin's heart about joining the Dark Side? Make Anakin believe that it was his destiny since he would have been created to join the Dark Side and become a Sith, that he can also use that knowledge to save Padme? It would be a classic. Sidious tells Anakin that he is his father. Let's add more to the classic for ROTJ when Luke meets Sidious on the Death Star and tell Luke he is his grandfather and that together they can rule the galaxy as a family.

So why in the heck create Anakin and leave him on Tatooine? Why not raise him from birth so Anakin would not know what it is like to be a good person or learn those compassionate feelings? Why not train him from the beginning and breed him all his life to be a Sith Lord? Is Sidious that dumb? I don't think he is. If the Jedi had a prophecy that one will be conceived by the midi-chlorians to bring balance to the Force by destroying the Sith, wouldn't the Sith be aware of this prophecy? And if so, why create a person in a fashion that will one day destroy you? Especially take the chance to leave him alone and one day have the Jedi take him in and possibly fulfill the prophecy? People may say that is the way it happened. True, it happened that the Jedi took Anakin in, but if you engineered Anakin to be an all-powerful Sith Lord and knew you did it in a way that is prophesied to destroy you, would you take that chance? It wouldn't be worth it. Now, if you knew that a boy has been discovered by a Jedi that possibly was conceived by the midi-chlorians that will one day bring balance to the Force by destroying you, then you would have nothing to lose to try to turn him to your side. It would make more sense that Sidious trying to turn Anakin is something to do because he has nothing to lose, but everything to gain rather than a situation where he creates Anakin and hopes to one day slowly turn him to see things his way, which would be a greater risk.

So why did Qui-Gon say that the midi-chlorians continually speak to us to tell us the will of the Force? Why did Lucas say Anakin was conceived by the midi-chlorians so he can bring balance to the Force and get rid of evil? Isn't that the will of the Force? Isn't that what Qui-Gon said about the midi-chlorians and that they spoke to us? And what I mean by us is Jedi who will listen to the midi-chlorians and understand the will of the Force. Do you really think that Sidious would actually see that one day a Jedi would discover Anakin and free him from slavery and bring him to Coruscant to become a Jedi? And that the Jedi would approve of his training even though he would be too old because traditionally Jedi are trained from birth? If Sidious is that good, you would think he would have been good enough to foresee his own death, or know how to prevent a situation where it would happen, and that his so called creation would turn on him.

We have seen all the movies. There isn't anything left to hide is there? If so, why hide it? The story is out there. The saga is complete. If something new comes out, shouldn't it have been in the movie? Why wait later to tell us? Why not make it better by releasing that information in the movie?

It's true that the idea of having Sidious revealing to Anakin that he creating him happened. But if it was suppose to be true then there is nothing left to be said. But if it isn't true you don't have a movie to reveal the real truth since ANH, ESB, and ROTJ have already been created. You don't have that chance of resolution and you would confuse the audience if it isn't intended to be true. That would be a good reason to drop the idea, don't you think?

I know Pablo Hildago has come out with his idea of Palpatine creating Anakin. But this time he is going with his idea, rather than telling us stuff from the script. This is just his opinion. Pablo like others seems to be waiting for a twist. I think the problem would be that there are no more movies left to be made to reveal that. ROTS seems to have been the last chance to tell us anything else that needs to be cleared. It is possible that Pablo may know something and wrote his blog to hint us at something, but I seriously doubt it.

Anakin Skywalker was created by the will of the Force and fulfilled the Jedi prophecy and destroyed the Sith and ended the story. As Lucas said, he never thought beyond ROTS and that is because there is nothing left to tell.
