Need to share the below news with everyone. Its interesting to know about the surface of new religion based on movies . Dont forget to read till the end to see the comment from Tesco on this weirdo :) . Happy Reading.Remember Barbara Adams, the woman who wore her Star Trek uniform even while serving as a juror on the Whitewater trial? We thought her dedication to sci-fi was so above and beyond the call of duty it would never be matched, but a report in today's Telegraph proves we should never say never.According to Daniel Jones, founder of the International Church of Jediism, staff at a Tesco department store in Bangor, North Wales, ejected him over security fears when he refused to remove his hood.
"I told them it was a requirement of my religion, but they just sniggered and ordered me to leave," said Jones, also known by his Jedi name Morda Hehol. "I walked past a Muslim lady in a veil. Surely the same rules should apply to everyone."The handbook of the U.K. Jedi Church, which was founded last year by Jones--excuse us, Morda Hehol--states that "Jedis must wear a hood up in any public place of a large audience." The religion is practiced by 500,000 around the world."It was discrimination," said Jones. "I was really upset. Nobody should be treated like that."
A Tesco spokesman had this response:
"Jedi are very welcome to shop in our stores although we would ask them to remove their hoods. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda and Luke Skywalker all went hoodless without going to the Dark Side. If Jedi walk around our stores with their hoods on, they'll miss lots of special offers."
