It is not a religion!!?

Being a Jedi isn't a religion, It's a relationship with the Force. The Force is your ally, your companion that will always guide you. I bet most of you are missing something in your heart when you are alone but only a connection with the Force can fill that gap when you allow yourself to feel the flow of the Force through you and all living beings.

    Of course it is a religion, it is called Jediism. Just because you call it a "relationship" doesn't mean it ceases to be a religion. That goes for all religions.

    @ Monarchco: -In the 2001 census, 390,000 individuals, (0.7 per cent of total respondents) self-identified as followers of the Jedi faith, created as part of the narrative structure of the Star Wars science-fiction movie series. This Jedi census phenomenon followed an internet campaign that stated, incorrectly, that the Jedi belief system would receive official government recognition as a religion if it received enough support in the census. An email in support of the campaign, quoted by BBC News, invited people to 'do it because you love Star Wars... or just to annoy people'.[108]-

    Yeah, this is cute.

    If ridicule that makes you look stupid is your idea of cute. Otherwise, it's kind of like "Ishtar" funny. (You're young. Google it.)
