There was this news article a few days ago: http://www.templeofthejediorder.org/forum/jedi-in-the-news/108378-bbc-news-have-jedis-created-a-new-religion#166332
That precipitated this interview, often when there is one article which gets attention somewhere then it spawns multiple other related topics in other places.

That was WAY cool!! *EXCELLENT* representation!
Often before, I've seen and heard dorky things out there, pointing to "Jediismdom" as a whole, being represented by plastic lightsaber weilding hood wearers, portraying to the public masses that we all, everyone, seem to be the type who'd rather spend life pretending we live in Star Wars instead of reality...
But this time, such was not so - it was informative, intelligent, well represented, portrayed maturity and soundness of mind, completely and utterly free of disrespect for anyone, and I'm totally proud of the whole thing - THANK YOU!!
