In the later case, why even say to someone "May the Force be with you"? Either it is or it isn't. Don't have midi-chlorians? Sorry buddy! My bad!
Well I don't like much that "superior race' concept ether. I just think there might be a way to give midichlorians an interesting plot in the revisited saga. Deleting all midichlorians references had already been done to death in the SW fanediting world. I don't say that midichlorians should be in the PT revisited, but I think it could, if done well.
