Often the whole debate thing gets way too serious, so I decided to post something with a little more humor:

Could Han have been right? Is it all just a bunch of "tricks and simple nonsense"?

I got a big kick out this when I first read it some months ago. I particularly like how the answers to how the Jedi were performing these tricks was even placed within the context of known Star Wars technology... It's not the Force, it's a miniature repulsorlift the Jedi and Sith are using to to trick people into thinking they have a telekinetic power! What a hoot!

Pretty good, I like the quotes put into third person. I however am a believer, especially in light of the Yoda/ Dooku battle in AotC. I always attributed Han's lack of faith to a poor education system, after all he was a kid during the Clone war. Anyway the Vader force choke argument is the weakest. Yes he is intimidating, and he choked Captain Antillies to death with his hands (which is actually evidence against the force), but if someone doesn't believe that the force user is a threat to them (like the admiral on the Death Star), then Vader's powers shouldn't have any affect.
