[quote]Every living thing is connected to the force.[/quote] By all means, do what the other guy did not, and lets see a source. All I've seen are characters claiming one thing or another about the force, with none of them backing themselves up, whilst contradicting each other's claims. Furthermore, lets see a source showing why the haloverse's characters would suddenly become connected. [quote]And the force is at least semi-sentient. When Plagueis attempted to create life through the force, the Force retaliated by creating a manifestation of itself. Anakin Skywalker was the result.[/quote] Semi-sentient is obviously not equatable to full sentience, so even if it were semi-sentient, it proves that it'd likely do nothing. However with that aside, [i]reactions[/i] do not prove, nor even suggest semi-sentience. Though I'm not sure how you'd be "semi sentient" in the first place. Either you're aware, or you're not. Also I'd like a direct link to a passage stating that it was the force itself retaliating. All I've found is them suggesting that midi-chlorians retaliated, and others suggesting that they didn't even retaliate, but that he made Anikin on purpose.
