A man who does bad things, does a good thing and brings balance to Force as a whole? It just doesn't make any sense.
That's like if Osama Bin Laden rescued a kitten hit by a car and somebody said he brought balance to terrorism.
That doesn't make sense.
It's more like OBL bringing down Al Quaida in his final moments, before they can kill everyone in the US with their super weapon and entirely corrupt his son into their ranks. Which doesn't make him a flawless hero, considering his past, but still someone who did the right thing when the time came.

I was under the impression it was widely accepted that Anakin brought balance to the force...

Actually, the most recent book revealed a solid answer to the prophecy.

As canon as Han saying the Death Star was too big to be a space station...

There are certainly some inconsistencies, but very few outright contradictions.

"Balance to the Force" is a numbers game. The key is in a comment by Yoda at the end of Ep. 1.

But Obi Wan said Anakin was prophecied to destroy the Sith "not join them!" And he did. Eventually. *NM*

Technically, going strictly by the films, that could have been supposition rather than quotation. *NM*

I still think the bringing balance refers to what happens AFTER ROTJ

I don't like your analogy - organisation vs nationality

What if I had said Christians instead of Americans? Then you'd have the comparison you favor. *NM*

No I wouldn't, I'm frankly confused as to why you think I would favour that more

Not ideal maybe, but more an organization of people than a nation of people.

I'm not overlooking it. I just don't view the moment as one of "balance achievement".

No, I do. You probably read my tangent about my disagreement with Lucas about Vader's redemption.

The concept of evil in SW (like in WOT) is Zoroastrian, not Taoist

The problem with Star Wars is that smart people analyze it, but... it's pretty simplistic
