Would George do it any different?
Simple question...

If George knew in 1983 what he knows know, about the way Anakin turned from the Jedi and became Darth Vader, would he still have allowed him to merge with the Force and be present as a Force spirit on Endor alongside Ben and Yoda for Luke to see?
Vader did one solitary good deed in killing Palpatine. Would that be enough to forgive him for:-

1-Killing the Tuskens
2-Murdering Dooku
3-Killing the Younglings
4-Slaying the Separatists
5-Injuring Padme
6-The Jedi Purge

If George knew all of the above when he wrote Jedi, would Anakin still have been redeemed? Allowed into heaven, in a manner of speaking.

I think that Darth Vader should go to heaven. I think that Anakin brought alot of good to the Galaxy, when he killed Palpatine and himself. That meant that the Empire was brought to an end, and also that meant that the Galaxy was free. Anakin did so much good for the Galaxy.You would be crazy to not let him go to Heaven.

May the Force be with you

I think you have this question backwards. If Lucas thought that these acts as you sated above were unreedemable, he wouldnt have had them in ROTS.
when making ROTS he knew Anakin becomes one with the Force at the end, and was able to put in what he that was acceptable. So he didnt have to have Anakin do anything he thought would be unreedemable. Plus theres always the "anakin is anakin and vader is vader" thing. that Anakin is the good person inside and Vader is the one that did all the horrible stuff.
