The Crazy Rants of Samantha BurnsDoes That Mean George Lucas Is Their God?
Apparently, there are some really nerdy people out there - perhaps as nerdy as Trekkies.
Sad, but true.
These people are Star Wars fanatics who want their beliefs to be acknowledged as a religion by the UN.
They also want today's International Day for Tolerance renamed Interstellar Day of Tolerance.You know, as lame as that is, if it came down to two choices, I'd believe in Star Wars before I believed in Scientology.Umada and Yunyun said: "For the last ten years the United Nations has marked the International Day of Tolerance. While we support this important work, we feel the UN needs to move with the times.
"Like the UN, the Jedi Knights are peacekeepers and we feel we have the basic right to express our religion through wearing our robes, and to be recognised by the national and international community.
Lol.
The "religion" has two names: it can be called either Star Wars or Jedi Knight.
But, I think they should just lump all movie- and tv-based religions into one category and call them all the religion of the nerds. I mean, there have to be some dorks out there who have pulled religious Star Trek values out of their a$$, right?
And, there's also the worship of Matrixism.
Okay, you can stop rolling your eyes now.

Maybe they should all band together under The Church of the Universal Dorks.

Hey! Some of my best friends are dorks. And they don't mind me saying so because they say the same thing about me. Erm...
Never mind.

Threesomes, shrooms, graffiti and lacrosse ... It doesn't sound like Matrixism is for dorks. Sounds like it rocks.
Man they ain't even afraid of the cops.

I don't know about the Jedi wussies but Matrixism kicks ass!
I kick ass and I am a Matrixist therefore Matrixism must kick ass. As you can see it's all very simple.
