Jedi Religious Faith
The Jedi Church believes that there is one all powerful force that
binds all things in the universe together. The Jedi religion is
something innate inside everyone of us, the Jedi Church believes that
our sense of morality is innate. So quiet your mind and listen to the
force within you!
It is not against the law to answer Jedi, you are welcome to have any
faith you wish. It is the governments responsibility to accept our
faith and accurately record the statistics.
Yeah but they dont believe the actual Star Wars movie really happened or that Mr Lucus is a prophet and God revealed to him the history and events of a 'galaxy far, far away'.
The terminology used by the Jedi Church were introduced by the
fictional Star Wars movies, and often references are made to the movies
by our members, as a conceptual demonstration of how some might ascribe
to the higher levels of a Jedi faith, in a far away land, a long time
ago. The fact remains, that these concepts merely reflect a deep held
innate morality, that we all have inside us, and now we have some common
terminology and place to share our thoughts with each other. This
morality existed prior to the movies. The movies do not in any way legitimise nor negate the legitimacy of the Jedi Church. They are merely a discussion point.
The Jedi Church neither confirm nor deny that George Lucas is a
member of the Jedi Church. We do not mind if our members deny their
involvement in our church should they seek to avoid persecution.
