"ok lets say I'm sure Yoda and Ben must haven given luke just a little bit on how the jedi order worked before the empire and how it is suppost to work, but all of the eu fans out there will never grasp this consept, after all the jedi are not gods they have needs just like everyone else and getting married would give into sins of the flesh and the dark side."
Indeed this is an interesting explanation. However, I first thought that Jedi Knights weren't allowed to marry, because it would distract them from their primary task of serving the Republic... or maybe because the Jedi are supposed to value logic higher than emotions... (cough*Vulcans*cough)
