Jediism is a real world belief & or a philosophy stemming from the Jedi in the Star Wars films, in 2001 a large group of people put down Jedi/Jedi knight as a joke on the religion part of their census reports. to keep people from having to pay a fine for puting false info, it was reported that a few thousand "Jedi" lived in the UK and the department of census takers confirmed it as real and newly made religion.

If we consider the Jedi grabbing kids to be urban myths then you've a plausible reason for why it's a widespread belief despite being based on very little in the way of fact, myths are not required to be true after all. I wouldn't put it by a Sith to do a few of the cases too, as most see lightsaber and think Jedi!-----signature-----Excellence: "You are the forum's Quick Ben."

All our hopes and expectations

Black holes and revelations

they bullied people in school because they were clever, now they've made a religion that threatens to make all people clever enough to learn how to hypnotise people into slaves.

USA who wrote the jedi path abolished slavery in 1865, but there's still some americans trying to revive it. The basis for the religion is to rid the earth of clever people so dumb people can be free without the control modern society has over them.

they are not frightening anybody. modern society has ways & means to deal with criminals. The fact that they are using children to popularise slavery is surprising even for americans.

Anything actually in the world nowadays that they call powers are normal abilities.

What jedi religion means?

The Jedi religion is also known as 'Jediism'. It is a religion which spawned from the Star Wars films. They use the philosophy found in the Star Wars books and films along with aspects from various other religions. They believe in meditation, and they believe in 'the Force'. I think a Wikipedia page exists on it. Search for Jediism on Google and it should come up! :D hope this helps!

Should jediism considered to be a religion?

In a 2001 census in Australia over 70k people identified Jedi as their religion. The number dropped off slightly in later years but rose again to around 64k in the 2012 version. This is the result of a movement started in 2001 when a group of Star Wars fans began recruiting Australians to their cause. "If there are enough people in the country, about 10,000, who put down the same religion, it becomes a fully recognized and legal religion" is what the email reads. This means that now Jedi is no longer classified as "no religion" and is now classified as a "Not defined" religion in Australia's government. Whether it's some persons idea of a joke, or just an interesting way of getting back at the government, some people think it's becoming a much bigger problem than originally thought. The idea that a fictional Jedi order created for books and movies in the Star Wars franchise could actually be considered a real religion is absurd, but fans seem to have figured out a way to make it legitimate, at least figuratively if not literally.


What was new jersey main religion in the 1600s?

I believe that the practiced religion in New Jersey is the religion of Jediism. Unknown to most commoners, Jediism is commonly perceived in New Jersey as Islam is perceived in the Middle East. Everyone in New Jersey, including Christians, are really just Jedi in disguise. Be aware, because this is why the crime rate is so high.


What is a philosophy not a religion?

This would generally fit Buddhism, Taoism, Jediism, and a few other traditions-even a few Hindu traditions. Buddhism does not worship a God - the Buddha is a human being who leads the Buddhist followers. Most Buddhists are thinkers rather than worshippers. This makes them a philosophy. A majority of Buddhists also believe that you do not need a god to show good and compassion to others or to lead/control you, but still have respect for those who do worship a god. Buddhism is a peaceful movement which has supported peace and freedom for thousands of years and they respect religions rather than constantly battling or "picking on" them. In this sense, Buddhism is not a religion. However, the word "religion" is also somewhat misunderstood: we confuse the term with "church" and even "organization", neither of which really fits well with Buddhism. In the most general sense, the word "religion" could simply refer to a container in which we label similar forms of faith, and in this sense Buddhism could very well be considered a religion. There are also Buddhist groups which are strictly religious in nature, and hold the Buddha in the same reference that a Catholic might hold the Holy Trinity. These are certainly religions, and not merely philosophies. The teachings of the Buddha are wide open to interpretation. All religions are philosophical in nature; not all philosophies are religious. The definitions of the word "religion" make this a tricky question to answer.
