Taoism v. The Force (yes, like in Star Wars)

George Lucas completely created the Star Wars world, he came up with everything in those movies in his head. He actually had to create some of the technology for the earliest movies, but by far the most impressive thing he created was The Force. The Force is somewhat close to what would be considered a religion, but unlike in real life The Force allows you to manipulate the world around you (for those very gifted in The Force). Taoism, I believe, closely resembles The Force in the way that you're supposed to be able to draw or see the energy in everything in the natural world around you. I've watched all the Star Wars movies but I'm not really one of those people that know every little thing about it, so i don't want to look like a dummy and make statements about it that aren't true so I'll just leave it at this: yes, I believe George Lucas's creation The Force closely resembles Taoism.
