Did anyone filling in the 2001 census returns
put down 'Jedi Knight' for Religion.

My Friend was telling me he did. !!!!

WHY ?

Hi,

As if we don't have enough trouble chasing ancestors!

Which parish church would hold the register for Jedi Knights?!!!!

I heard about that. It's an actual religion. Doesn't include moving things with your mind of course. I did have a site on it bookmarked, but I lost interest, so I lost the site.

Also, not all religions require or have a parrish. I'm pagan. I'm probably listed as Baptist on the last (2000) census, as I didn't fill out the info, another family member did. So, I'll have to wait until 2010 to get the info right.

Don't know about that, I was visiting my parents on "the night" but I refused to fill the form in, as it was in a foreign language. See what happens in 2011.

My brother insisted on putting it down on his form....

There was some e-mail  /internet rumour  going around that if enough people put it down on their form then it would be classified as an official religion in britain.
According to the BBC:
The number of people who stated they were Jedi was 390,000 (0.7 per cet of the population).

But I think they just gave it more or less it's own category.

GUILTY!

This little old lady put it down.  Well I don't believe in any other religion and it was better than leaving it blank.

Apparently there weren't quite enough to make it a new religion.  Will try again next time if I'm still here.

My desendants can make what they like of it.

I sooooo regret doing that!! If my descendents see me in the 2001 census they'll probably say "My GG Grandfather Ryan Hill was such an [insert alternative term for a donkey here]!!", becuase that's the way I feel looking back on it My parents put it down too

I'm not religious anyways, so I'll remember to overlook that field on the form in the future.

They will probably think we had a great sense of humour it was a laugh

Yeah Sylviaann, I never thought about it that way before. I guess you're right
