I think anyone trying to find an argument to justify this moronic belief is equally intellectually challenged and should get out more.
It isn't clever, it isn't cool, it isn't funny, it doesn't make a valid statement on religion and its treatment in modern society.
What it is are a few sad little nerds with nothing going on in their lives trying to make a point when it simply does not exist.

all I'm saying is threat ALL religions equally (ancient and modern, ridiculous and laughable as well as serious ones) OR allow people to openly mock ALL religions, both ancient and serious ones as well as modern and ridiculous ones.
you are calling the guy's beliefs moronic, who are YOU to decide what is moronic or not?
I could, at this very moment, create my own religion on a goddess of logic, and who are YOU to say that doing so is moronic?
I am an atheist and i believe all religious beliefs are laughable, but why should I make fun of other people's beliefs? they are all equally ridiculous in my eyes, but i will defend their right to believe in whatever they want.

I know exactly what you're saying. At the very least the majority of existing religions have a historical context even if they are not in any way based on anything proveable.
Jedi is NOT a genuine belief, it was a POINT SCORING EXERCISE in the UK 2001 census.
It is something only the saddest of the sad will ever say and is NOT a basis for a religion.

and exactly why can't it be a basis for a religion? It is no different basing a belief system in a movie than basing it on some book.

Hypocritical or not, tough. It isn't going to happen. We have enough hassle due to religious dogma as it is, most people will not accept such a ridiculous belief from these idiots.

Grrr Tesco's are evil. But i'm happy to be a thorn in their side.
I've had many an arguement with store managers over my right to be able to purchase alcohol WITHOUT the need to carry ID around with me.
Later this year Tesco will open at least 21 stores in this arid city and plenty more—it will not say how many—in Las Vegas, San Diego and Los Angeles. It plans to pepper some of America's fastest-growing states with Fresh & Easy local groceries at a rate of three a week. Tesco has identified as many as 100 sites to begin its £250m a year ($500m) campaign. Rumour has it that a new warehouse just east of Los Angeles could alone supply some 400 stores. …
