**** Excerpt from the Church of Sithisms Sith Doctrine **** The dark side was seen as having been used for selfish purposes, although many darksiders who were accused of such selfishness claimed that the dark side was simply a means to achieve an end. One of the most notable examples was Anakin Skywalker, a Jedi who embraced the dark side with the intentions of saving his wife after seeing her die in a vision, even at the expense of the Jedi Order. Many found the dark side to be addictive, unable to resist its pull the more they were subjected to it. Even as their physical bodies slowly decayed, Dark side users became more powerful in the force. However, some users like Mara Jade noted that the use of the dark side was a practical matter, as the power it granted was more efficient when performing destructive Force powers like telekinesis. Like the light side, the dark side was often treated as though a semi-sentient entity with purposeful designs. It has been theorized by some (notably Vergere) that there is no such thing as the dark side but only malevolent intent in the user, since most dark side users already possessed negative intentions or else fell victim to the temptations of absolute power and domination. This theory was fervently opposed by the Jedi Master Yoda. Additionally, Darth Plagueis believed that there were distinct differences between the energies of the light and dark sides as well as distinct differences in how one drew upon each..... **** end of excerpt **** Like the Church of Sithisms Sith Doctrine Facebook Page Facebook/RealSithDoctrine #SithDoctrine #ChurchOfSithism #Sithism #Sith
