Star Wars Question of the Day: If Anakin Was to Bring "Balance" to the Force, Why the F--k Did the Jedi Keep Doing Their Thing

Unless the Jedi meant "balance" in a pejorative sense, by prophesying
that only Vader would be able to bring "balance" to the Force, they're
basically admitting that their "Religion of the Light Side" is
one-sided, false, wrong, and bad. If they can't bring balance, if all
the Jedi do is increase imbalance, why did they persist in their ways?
Force of habit? Bureaucratic hand-tying?

Lucas theoretical inconsistency #812,404. But hey, what do we expect--
the guy doesn't even have a chin!
