Jedis in UK

    It turns out that the 2001 census in UK has shown a massive 0.7% of UK population as Jedi! This sky link states that there are mre Jedi than Jews! It also states the fallacy that was thought - if enough votes for Jedi occured it would become a known religion. So it isn't a religion... yet.

    I wonder when Irelands census results will be out, I'll get to see my Jedi vote on the big screen in a couple of years I guess.

    Yeah and i'm wondering how many of those people actually realised that part of the Jedi religion is meant to be that they can't fall in love - ie. no sex!!

    Yeah, there's a downside!
    Anyway, i say well done to us!!! Hooray for the star wars nerds!!

    That's pretty amazing!!! Yay, Jedi's!!!

    Also I don't think the people who have called themselves Jedi have passed any of the trials....or have even been Padawan. I mean they just can't call themselves Jedi. If they could then I could just as easily walk around calling myself Yoda and banging people on the head with my walking stick. I mean just cause i'm 3 foot nothing and green doesn't mean I can do this!!!

    Respect not do these young ones! Great is my anger towards them!!

    i doubt many of the people who put down jedi as their religion would need to worry about getting less sex than theyre currently getting :)

    Jedis can't have secks?
    No wonder they all went over to the dark side... My sympathies have completely changed now. Go empire! Go empire!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,126 ✭✭✭][cEMAN**


    Tusky I think part of being on the dark side is that they tend to not follow any rules...

    Hey now, was anakin skywalker not a jedi, or did he not make it the whole way through?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Yeah but Anakin turned to the dark side and became Darth Vader.

    Therefore doing the maths: Never sleep with beautiful women as you'll end up with two kids, a boss that wants to kill you at any chance he gets and when your son comes looking for you - you end up paying an arm and a leg!

    (hehe, well maybe not the leg)

    tHAT WAS A LOAD OF BULLSHíT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    wasnt bull****. In Australia they threatned court action if any one put down Jedi, something about defacing official documents i think was the basis


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,524 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Why was it bull?
