What is Jediism?
Jediism is a made-up word that truly does not exist and did not exist until 2001. In 2001 a joke started in the United Kingoms and New Zealand to list Jedi as your religion on the Census and get it offically listed as a religon. There are two major problems with this. First listing it on a census does not make it an offical religion. It only gets its own filing number now, nothing more. Secondly it caused many to believe that Jedi is in fact a religion. Jediism was used because Taoism and Buddhism were big comparison sources at the time. Jedi has been and is a Philosophical Way of Life, not a religion. Yet Jediism claims otherwise. And many sites exist solely to advance and support Jediism. Unfortunately or fortunately depending on your point of view, not one Jediism site is grounded fully in reality and are often sources of many fights and problems. The Jedi Academy Online does not use nor endorse Jediism.
