“ In darkness I follow the light and find my way to the beginning again, and again, and again. ”
Hope can live in a vacuum.
~ Greg Rucka
One did not need to believe in the Force to know right from wrong. Many who held no faith in the Force acted righteously, and he had known more than one sentient who had acted selfishly, even cruelly, and used belief to justify doing so.
For the light to exist, there must be the dark. For the Force, there must be balance.
For those he has ignored, he allows them this. He allows them God, their only ally. Places to worship, but no one to teach.
