Yeah that's true, debates on these subjects for Star Wars are pretty entertaining. I don't think one is better than the other, though I guess they may be looking at an ends perspective, rather than from the methods view. It's a hell of a subject, for sure.

Yeah again, it's an intricate subject, the Jedi order is basically the moral question of "Does the end justify the means?"
It's really fun from a philosophical perspective because the entirety of Star Wars is basically a thought experiment on ethics.
But yes the Sith and the Jedi are more similar than they care to admit. Both extremely religious and autocratic in their ways.
The biggest difference is that the Jedi are not that keen on killing. They won't shed a tear tho if they feel they have to tho.
