This is no joke.  There exists an honest to God (pardon my pun) religion actually based on the Star Wars "Force" mythology. And more and more people-----tens of thousands-----around the world list themselves as members of this Jedi religion.

I'm wondering: If I were to join the Star Wars religion, would I be welcome to use the "prayer thread" to pray to George Lucas?



Not to George Lucas-he's just a man. Said so himself!
But you may seek The Force if you will.
We should respect everyone's beliefs here-if they're sincere.


Because I would hate to have to have to tell you....
"I find your lack of faith....disturbing!"

They are driven by strange impulses"
