What I was trying to communicate, in my charming whimsical fashion, is that it's not so much that I find your philosophy unrealistic, or even evil, it's the idea that those in power who espouse it publicly and smugly actually believe a word of it.

"Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense."
