Thats not the best example. If you want to REALLY understand the answer then check out "the Church of the SubGenius".

That's an internet created religion which is specifically to make fun of religion. It says so. But its a recognized religion.
There are some even worse than that.
Besides who says Jedi isn't? Didn't it show up higher in the census than Scientology?

I thought Jedi was a recognized religion with around 2% of the world population.

unfortunately scientology is recognized. Perhaps the jedi on the planet need to start an uprising until they are also recognized. Losers of the world unite! Bring forth thy fake light saber and fill the streets! Put on your retarded outfits and stand up for your religion!!!
Or just stay in and play more video games like the rest of society wishes you to do...

Because Scientology had enough money and power to lean on the US government.
I'd like to correct this as I did a little reading. They didn't just lean on the government, they bribed them by trading valuable property and land for virtually worthless land, and also dug up incriminating evidence on the IRS commissioner. Sounds religious to me.

Because high profile actors aren't claiming they are Jedi on daytime talk shows ?
