What I said was: (that whole midi-chlorians thing that most SW fans revile - but which I actually have no problem with, really)

To reiterate, I still have no problem with it. I'm not happening to change my mind because a lot of people disagree with me.

To me a symbiotic relationship with another organism (or organisms) doesn't touch upon the spirituality of the Jedi in question. For me, that mysticism is still there but I simply have to look harder to pinpoint it. And it definitely seems to be in the spirit of each character rather than their special abilities. Which to me makes sense given that the new trilogy is basically showing the flaws of the Jedi order as it stood during Anakin's training.

The responsibility of the mysticism is therefore with the people. Not to mention that their perception of what they call the Force is still pretty much a mystery.

So I maintain that it still does not kill it for me, at this time.
