hmm i guess if they're anything like you and arent concerned about making sure as many people can read their site as possible....i guess they dont care that much. and since they dont, i dont care enough to want to read it now.



bad attitude to have when you're trying to get a new religion off the ground.

Gotta agree with some of the others... the font size needs to be 10 or 12 point.

...unless one of the tests of the religion is having eyesight good enough to read 8 point font. My current vision's 20/700 (qualifies as blind if I don't wear contacts or glasses) and I have a lot of trouble with it.

Does Jediism have gods and devils??

Not Jediism itself, infinite. However, we have Christian-Jedi, etc. - and they have their own demons and such. To the Jedi, the Force is a form of "God". It is described by some as " the golden thread of Light that ties together the truths of every major religion, philosophy, and meditative path", while others see it as the "God" of Jediism; while the Christian-Jedi see the Force and God as the same thing. I see the Force as the "God" of Jediism, personally.

Any idea when the message boards will be up again?

cool. Do you think Jediism will ever have a good amount of members? like 100,000s or even hit the 1 million mark?

I have no idea when the forum will be up again. I wish things would hurry up, though. I'm missing the forum

I believe that Jediism could reach very high numbers in members - but the number of people we get isn't my concern as much as the type of people we get is.

cool, are starwars fans welcome to join? i might join, sounds a lovely religion

Sure thing; although it won't be worth much until the forums get back up. Truth is, most (if not all) of us are Star Wars fans. Feel free to join - that goes for everyone.

thanx for all the information about Jediism, i have learnt soo much

Wait, so is it true that you DONT need to give up your current religion to be a Jedi?

Exactly, Ramen. It's not required at all. Like I said, we accept other religions a bit more easily than most. However, if your beliefs are violent or "evil", then you ARE required to give those beliefs up to be a "true Jedi". I, however, have no other religious affiliation other than Jediism; though I do study Buddhism and Taoism, and use those teachings more than anything else in my life. I am strictly a Jedi...nothing else....hehe

Yep, then you'd be a "Sith"...

Oddly enough, Jedism is pretty close to my personal beliefs... If only it didn't have the stigma of "fiction" attached to it...*sigh*

i still think yoda and lighsabers would make the religion even better i shall become a jedi now

I'll be waiting to see your posts (once the forum is back up, that is), infinite.

Anymore questions (just leaving the door open)?

does any of the members look like people from star wars

right serious question now, Do you have meeetings? religious holidays, etc?
