Let's NOT Kill Hitler

The JUDGE :

If you could go Back in Time, to Germany, 

before Hitler came to Power, 

knowing what you know now, 

Would You Kill Him? 

The PROPHET :

Is that why you sent for me, John, to--

to ask me this, uh... This Question? 

The JUDGE :

I have to talk to you, Sam, 

because -- I've had another episode. 

The PROPHET :

Oh, yes? Go on. 

The JUDGE :

I've been tutoring this boy named Stuart. 

In The Vision, I saw him drown. 

But That's Not The Point. 

In The Vision, something 

was missing. 

The PROPHET :

How -- How do you mean? 

The JUDGE :

It was like...A Blank Spot, 

A Dead Zone. 

The PROPHET :

First of all, Tell Me --

Did The Boy in 

fact drown? 

The JUDGE :

His Father wanted him to play hockey --

I talked him out of it. 

The Boy's Alive. 

The PROPHET :

Ah. Yes. Don't you see --

How clear it is? 

Not only can you see The Future, you can -- 

The JUDGE :

...I can change it. 

The PROPHET :

You can change it, exactly. Here. 

Yes, John. That is your -- 

Your Dead Zone. 

The possibility of... 

of altering the outcome 

of Your Premonitions... 

It's fascinating. Let me make a note. 

The JUDGE :

What about My Question? 

The PROPHET :

Huh? Oh, you mean the one a

bout....about Hitler? 

The JUDGE :

What would you do?

The PROPHET :

Err -- I don't like this, John. 

What are you getting at? 

The JUDGE :

What would you do? 

Would you kill him? 

The PROPHET :

All right. All right --

I'll give you An Answer : 

I'm a Man of Medicine --

 I'm expected to Save Lives 

and ease Suffering....

and I love People. 

Therefore, I would have No Choice --

But to Kill the son of a bitch. 

The JUDGE :

[ whispering under his breath ]

You'd never get away alive. 

The PROPHET :

It doesn't matter -- 

[cheerful]

I would kill him.

"Dear Sarah, 

It is a hard letter to write, so I'll make it short. 

I can't go on hiding anymore. 

That's what I've been doing -- running and hiding. 

I had this figured out all wrong. I always thought my power was a curse, but now I can see it 's a gift. 

By the time you get this letter, it'll be all over. 

You never will understand why. 

Nobody ever will, but I know what I'm doing. 

And I know I'm right. 

Just remember there's never been anyone for me except you. 

Just wasn't in the cards for us, I guess. 

I'll always love you, Sarah. 

Johnny." 

" A Sith LORD ?!?! "

Okay, so, this is now when all of that Shadow Work you can do to try to better understand and study the Nature of Evil, and come to terms with all of the Evil and Potential for Evil within yourself really begins to pay off - you recognise it instantly, because you know it so well and can spot it immediately.

Mace Windu get cast down into Hell from the heights because he refused to know it, couldn't see it, couldn't recognise it, didn't want to know.

So you can have a whole army of monks scouring the entire galaxy for almost 20 years, desperately hunting around on a quest to find, detect and defeat this Phantom Menace and none of them have a  clue what it even looks like.

How could he even know it was there..? Well, of course, he doesn't. Doesn't even suspect.

And when he gets told that it is there and he never saw it, he is completely incredulous. And ANGRY.

And for that, he was struck down in his prideful arrogance and cast down from the mountainside into Hell.

( "If What You Say is True, You Will Have Gained My Trust."   Gained. Earned It. 

Excuse me, he doesn't have to - BECAUSE HE'S YOUR EQUAL. 

He is one of your PEERS, of exactly the same standing in the hierarchy, bound by exactly the same vows, requirements and future
