I understand that completely. I'm just working my analysis based on the "whole Biblical narrative" as it's most commonly interpreted if you will. What do you think of my core idea though on why these themes endure?
Luke: You don't believe in the Force, do you?

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.
