I always thought it was interesting that Anakin's attachment to his family (and later to Padme) led him to rationalize his departure from the Jedi Way in his massacre of the Sandpeople (liberation theology) and his secret marriage to the Princess (renunciation of celibacy). Perhaps the Desert Father raised a Jesuit after all?
Gordo Perhaps he was a St. Louis Jesuit. Did he have a guitar?

Alec Guiness himself a devout Catholic never veiewed OBI as a Christian Dessert Father or Jesuit etc he thought he made a heck of a wizard dare I say Gandalf like and its from that view he played the part since he was a hodgepodge of George Lucas, Christian, Buddist, Yogi, Zen etc worldviews it would be an oversimplification to put OBI or Yoda into neat Christian categories when they clearly mixed eastern mysticism into the teachings of the force.

Well, I like Jesuits and I do not like Jedi, ergo, not a Jesuit.
Shalom,
