Fast forward to Episode III, and there's a scene where Palpatine and Anakin are sitting together at a show. It's here that Palpatine tells Anakin the story of Darth Plagueis, the Sith Lord who learned how to create life using the Force. Palpatine believed that Plagueis succeeded and Anakin was the result, hence his interest in young Skywalker.

I always figured that Palpatine was responsible because he mention that the apprentice learn all the secrets and then kill his master (the apprentice being himself) and that he then went on to influence the Force to have Anakin.
