That's only if you believe it to be what the New Age people believe it to be. Every culture has taken a step to try and understand how the world works. To strip away the need to segregate based on the belief of these different energies, Jedi just put it all together under one term "the Force". Taken from a recently formed document by the Jedi Community:The Force- ?The Force? is a loosely adapted term to explain a something which all cultures agree exist, but disagree on exactly what it is. As such, a Jedi dedicates themselves to understanding of all things within and through ?the Force?. As a rule, no Jedi can set down in law a concrete definition of ?the Force? for all to follow, only for themselves.walton-on-thames, 2 months ago
