Darth Vaders story is that of an honorable spirits who turn to evil due to his own pride and lust for the power to accomplish his goals. Inner darkness, fear, pride, and passions get the best of him. Its interesting to see how such a goodly messiah figure could turn to the very definition of evil and oppression.
But the truth remains: nobody is a lost cause. There is hope for all of us, no matter how far gone we may be, how improbable it may seem.
God’s divine mercy always leaves room for remorse, repentance, redemption. As far as he is concerned, there is always a “real prospect for rehabilitation”. It’s mind-boggling. It’s illogical. It’s grace.
