Hell, scientology also started with science fiction novels, and now they are a profitable enterprise dealing with taking people's money and make them work for them for free and giving them ever more money - Any Jedi stocks I can invest in yet...? :hmm: Sounds like a profitable business!

I believe there was an attempt to get Jedi listed as a religion for the census here in Australia a couple of years back, but they had no joy.

Yeah, I think over here it was given its own census code, but they threatened to fine people who put it on for falsifying census information.

Religion -

a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, esp. when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs.

That was nothing more than a scam exploiting a loop hole back in the 1980's to get out of paying Poll Tax. :p

I went to court and had my day in court. I told them, I will pay the poll tax but only 1p a week and I wanted receipts. Man you should had seen the look of the council when the judge allowed it.
