Who said anything about arguing? But really, what's there to argue? I could easily debunk every thing you copied from that old, and in many ways, outed dated, christian conspiracy site.

Like for instance the irrelevancy of this ridiculousness:

"The idea of Jedi Knights and a round table comes from the Knights Templar."

As if the Knights Templars were the first, or the last to entrain the notion of a philosophic warrior class communing in a select council. King Arthur anyone?

Plato, was one of the first to conceptualize the notion of the philosopher king class. Elite appointments convening for the betterment of a society in round table fashion. In fact, Lucas got the idea for the elite warrior class free from societal labors from Plato's, The Republic. The Jedi concept is an amalgamation of many, many things.

It's not a conspiracy. It's called story telling...

Yea George Lucas knows the mystery schools and uses elements in his movies, good for him...? I still don't get why people try to paint people as evil for displaying our collective HISTORY!

A gun is a tool and so is knowledge neither are evil.

Christian conspiracy theories are ripe with dogmatic exaggerations and sensationalist claims. William Cooper adopted this paranoid view of the esoteric made popular by right wing christian fundamentalists. William Cooper also claimed there were military bases on Mars, that Aliens crucified Jesus and, they filmed it. Oh, and he watched the film. Because he had top secret clearance.

Trouble is, people know very little about the esoteric so they fear it, and condemn it, not realizing that many, if not most of the people that have quite literally made history were initiates. Nothing, no force in existence is inherently good or bad. People and the choices they make are what determines this. Amazing how many fail to understand this. Take a look at the trendy, liberal, anti-gun lobby and their pretentious, fear based judgments.

Most of these claims about Lucas being some satanic monster are unfounded. Lucas was a student of Joseph Campbell's work, specifically, "the hero with a thousand faces", a book written about the mythological archetypes embedded in every culture. Lucas is arguably the best at adopting these archetypes into his films, that are not only strongly present in mythology, but also in the occult. This in no way means Lucas is some satanic, masonic, wizard. Nor does it mean any of these Star Wars archetypes are derived from any occult sources to produce some coercive, supernatural effect over the viewer.

In fact, the term Jedi does not come from ancient Egypt at all. It comes from the samurai films he use to watch and modeled his Jedi after. The term Jidaigeki, pronounced Jee-Dye-Geck-EE, is a Japanese genre of film. This is where he got the name, Jedi, from. These films were also the inspiration for the Jedi lightsaber. I recall Lucas in a documentary once referring to his Jedi as, "space samurai", with a code similar to the Samurai code of conduct called the Bushido.

Not bull-shito, but bushido ;)
