"Jedi"-A religion?

Intresting, see for yourself

Discuss.

Umm. A lot of it is pretty interesting actually. Except the Jedi Academy school. That bit was cheesy, lol.

That's sad. A fictional concept from a MOVIE is an official religion. ❌

All religions at one point or another were cosidered bs and fictional.

Look if these people are too stupid to understand that Star Wars is just a movie that's their problem. Let them figure out that there's no such thing as the Force and that there is no such thing as a Jedi.

Its not the Jedi themselves, its there ideals. Do you know the Jedi code? I'm a christian, but I admit that if all humans followed the Jedi Code flawlessly this planet would be alot safer and better.

No because if we followed the Jedi Codes some idiots would then go around following the Sith Codes.

lol.

That and this is stupid. All a Jedi is, is a new Crusader/Paladin. Same morals and crap like that. People need to get over it. Religion is (usually) men creation to explain how everything came to be, what happened after death, and how the world will end.

The "Jedi" religion offers none of that. Basically it's just a code to go by like a cult or something.

not all of The Jedi code is right you know... even though some are, some still aren't...

and darn, are those people crazy or what? Star Wars is only a movie! sheesh...

Religion is for the weak.
I put Jedi as my religion on the UK cencus as no other catagory suitably described my spiritual beliefs, which are best described as a fusion of Budhism, Tibettan Mysticism and Wicca. I am a spiritual person, but not a religious one. I find it amusing that there are more Jedi than Jews in the UK, a fact I tell great pleasure in telling my mother (who's family are Jewish)

From the article
Those adorable Wookiees are coming again to a theater near you.

Wookies are known to rip someone's arms out just for losing a game. That's so cute. 🙄

I love Star Wars, I never really get sick of it.

But these people have problems.

It just shows that people in Romania have nothing better to do, and that the state of their country must be that crappy that some people have no other ambition but to study star wars as a faith.

A class on how to speak wookie? Like anyone knows what chewy was saying in the first place. Oh wait, I'm sure someone knows of a book where all of the Star Wars lingos are translated. Yet again I rest my case on idiocricy of that.

If I took that class I would immedietly feel like an idiot when the teacher did roll call and I 'd be Like "Here!"
Just watch the movies, buy the toys, wear the t-shirt, hang the poster, play the videogame, and eat the bowl of C-3PO's

Star Wars isn't a religion its a franchise.

They Might as well start making religions into franchises

Passion of the christ action figures. Power action quick change Christ goes from looking holy, but dip in warm water and turns into bloody lacerated mess. All other action figures and Crucifix sold seperatley

Well any who I started the First Church of Sith. Anyone here want to follow the Sith Religion?

Just kidding.

Religion (particularly Christianity/Catholicism) already is a franchise...
Has it occured to you that when coming up with the concepts for the Force, Lucas drew heavily on Eastern religions and philosophies?
Have you ever heard of laylines or dousing? That is all about using the planet's natural energy fields, which was how both Yoda and Obi-Wan described the Force...
I agree, the idea of classes on how to speak Wookie are pretty stupid, but would you dismiss someone who studied Christianity as lacking in ambition?

2 different things. This is a RELIGION based on a MOVIE. A movie the creator George Lucas calls fake meaning it never happened. The accounts and life of Jesus has been proven true over the years.
