KJ_VENOM Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 to be a recognised religion in this country something like 1500 people have to admit to following it in the census i remember during the last census people were urged to put down jedi knight as a religion dont know if it worked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Till Man Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 The 2001 UK census included responses from 390,127 people (or 0.7% of the population of England and Wales) who gave their religion as Jedi. This means that there are more Jedis than Sikhs!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichC Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 The Jedi thing wasn't recognised as an official religion, as the authorities deduced - quite correctly - that anyone who put 'Jedi' down as their religion wasn't religious, but in fact a cretin.

Lestat Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I do remember the Jedi thing happening, that was quite funny. Was it 30,000 believers for it to become a real religion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
