I may not know all that for sure, but it does fit with what the movies show, and that does support the idea that Lucas has been consistent about the Force all along.

It's really up to each and every one of us wether or not we choose to see it that way.

To me the very fact that the way I am looking at it remains consistent from ANH-ROTS is why I say that's more likely than the ways to look at it that render all of this stuff contradictions.

Again, the Midichlorian concept includes all life forms, the Jedi concept from the classic trilogy is more suggestive of genetic supermen because Force potential was explained as a hereditary phenomenon, not something available to all life forms.
