evidence for jedi and yoda please?
Hey there's a collection of books, and load of movies etc, I believe the french for a collection of books is biblioteque, perhaps a good name for the jedi collection could be the Jedibiblioteque , any suggestions? i love the french language, or perhaps latin as it seems to convey authority.
Perhaps the God Yoda and the jedi council could start his ministry in Beijing as there was nothing written about Jesus god or his miniions having any interest in china, so definately rich pickings there, then off to conquer and subdue the rest of the worlds porr and ignorant.
Imagine the billions of indoctrinated chinese kids growing up to shell out billions of yen in tithes or books etc.
Christ! a fortune could be made at a single Jedi healing rally , just think of all those people dropping like flies with the force push !
TV Jediism could be bigger than catholocism alone !
US schools would lap up the new religion the kids would be begging for more, GM foods could carry the Yoda logo. the possibilities are endless!

There are enough religions in the world without creating a new one.
I'm sure George Lucas would agree.

On July 31st, 1917, the Allied Forces launched a ten day artillery bombardment using 3,000 heavy guns and 4,250,000 shells. The Battle for Passchendaele had begun. It was fought on blood-soaked, battle scarred ground and lasted almost four months, claiming a million casualties on both sides. The soldiers fought in cold and drizzle on terrain so ghastly that, as one soldier said: “If hell is anything like Passchendaele, I would not wish it on my worst enemy.” Over the years, Passchendaele has become synonymous with the horrors of the First World War.
All elements of the British military machine were thrown into the effort – from the home regiments to the Kiwis, to the Indians, to the Aussies. Finally, the high command turned to their elite corps -- Canadian Expeditionary Force. Canadian soldiers, entered the fray, relieving the exhausted armies. On the 6th of November, they took the village of Passchendaele. On the 10th of November they reached Hill 52 where they dug in, bringing victory to the Allied cause.
It was an extraordinary achievement for a young nation – only 50 years since Confederation with a population of less than 8 million souls. Canada sent over 600,000 men to the crucible of Western Front and their sacrifice forged the definition of what it meant to be Canadian. Proud. Strong. Resolute. In fact, of all the Allied armies, the Canadians were most feared by the enemy, so feared the Germans coined the word ‘storm-trooper’ to refer to us. The British Prime Minister Lloyd George summed it up when he said, “Whenever the Germans found the Canadian Corps coming into the line they prepared for the worst.”
