I recently read an article talking about the UK census. Basically after asking the population what religion they were, many people answered jedi or jedi knight. In fact 390,127 people or .7% of the population

Here is a wiki taking about it
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jedi_census_phenomenon

Anyway, so I figured I would ask ITT users, whats your religion?, I added option 8

"Jedi" is a true religion. Seriously, its very similar to many Asian religions like Confucianism and Buddhism.

What, Atheism isn't a valid religion?

Note, I gotta keep up appearances and give penguinbait **** for something for every pole he puts up. Still "Humanist" might be a useful option. :P

Actually, worshipping the GPS sungod (holding aloft a mighty n810) is how I spend my Sundays.

I don't quite know what the religion is called though

Atheism, as an explicit position, can be either the affirmation of the nonexistence of gods, or the rejection of theism. It is also defined more broadly as an absence of belief in deities, or nontheism.

Wouldn't "No Religion" cover Atheism?

I, like GA, like to stir the pot

Linux comes before all other gods, of course! Other than that... atheist here.

I'm a big believer in advanced life genetically engineered interventionism. a.k.a E.T's having a hand with mankind's missing link, so put me in the agnostic category, but with an educated pretty good hunch.

Yes it would, I'm mostly poking fun at the religious types that try to paint atheism as some kind of belief system (like, say Satanism ). Forgot the "", though.
