Meh, I doubt if he cares and for the majority in this country it would probably be a plus.

Holy crap. Jeeze wow, some people act like I was Ozzie Ozborn and pissed on the Alamo. It's just a movie. I know he doesn't give a shit. I was simply pointing out it would not surprise me if the themes of Catholic/Buddhism were part of his inspiration. I just don't see the plot the same way I did as when I was a kid. Kinda like I see Santa as a authoritarian stalker now.
It is still a masterpiece as far as acting, music, costumes and special effects. I was merely addressing the PLOT.
"HOW DARE YOU PICK ON STAR WARS".........
If it is just a movie, then take my criticism of the PLOT for just that.
No, you misunderstand me. I don't care about criticizing Star Wars. Have at it. I just don't think drawing parallels to biblical themes is necessarily a negative.
