--- Quote ---Wannabe Jedi Knights are advised to brush up on their lightsaber techniques, dust off their copy of the Jedi Handbook, and get down to Surrey, where two Star Wars aficionados have announced their intention to open a training centre dedicated to promoting the popular alternative religion.

The plan is the brainchild of Daniel Jones, aka Morda Helol, and bruv Barney (Jonba Hehol) who helped start the first UK branch of the "church" in their native Anglesey and have now set their sights on a Home Counties community hall for the centre of the UK's first Jedi academy.

Leading the worship will be 21-year-old Master Ajec, who has not revealed his real name, according to local press reports. Accolytes will be expected to have a copy of the aforementioned code before attending chapter meetings at which they'll either wear Obi-Wan Kenobiesque robes or the black trousers and black t-shirt which make up Jedi civvies.

Morda Helol explained: "We are not extremists, we are not psychotics and we are not a cult. This is a treatment plan to better your life. It is exploiting the best parts of your life. You can follow it completely or at you own pace. We open our doors to anyone."

Training to become a Jedi Master can apparently take up to two years, during which time disciples will have to master the lightsaber, study technology, martial arts and meditation and "learn the importance of neuro-linguistic programming" - something which is reckoned to act as a substitute for Jedi mind-control powers.

According to Mr Helol, he's had offers from Brazil, France, Spain and the US to establish similar chapters. He declared: "This is going worldwide."

Words fail me

I'm sure you're going to great lengths to bring us the best news, but there are sites on the internet that we can look at or not to find out stuff like this.

Faker:
*returns to his corner promising not to start a new topic for at least a week*

Boro_Bandito:
It's not about the time, but rather the content. You just have to get used to what would interest the forum in general, and think very hard about if other people would want to discuss it for any length of time. Making a thread based around a quote from somewhere else is touchy ground, and like öde  said, its not like we couldn't find this elsewhere. Better to use articles as links in contexts to an actual discussions.

Edit: And as for the article itself, crazy, man.

Johnny C:
I wonder if they'll qualify for tax breaks?
