If you're thinking of joking/putting down JEDI in the 2011 census, don't. Here's why...

Go smit101

Cheers mate.

I knew you'd understand if I'd taken that route. Tbh though, I didn't find the form to be particuarly nosey, only took a few minutes online.

Quite funny watching the census police on here pounce though!

I put antitheism

Not really a religion though. There should be a no religion, with an optional space where you can put down things like agnostic atheist etc..

for those saying there should be more categories under 'no religion' for atheist, agnostic, secular etc...

it works both ways, you don't see denominational options under the various religions, or modifiers such as 'evangelical' or 'only go to church at xmas' etc

ETA: what about 'light side jedi' and 'dark side jedi'

True

How about then just a small box, saying futher details. Where people have the option of adding more information about their religion or no religion.

Haha! the census police are out in force today! Hey! You didn't ask me if i'd submitted the online form before destroying the paper copy.

Very good

, you got me. Although I'm not sure how you got pleasure from destroying a piece of paper when you had already given them the info. Either your bluffing, or you have some fetish in taking pleasure from destroying random bits of paper :eek:
