After having a exchange with a totjo member about my public thoughts that totjo is more religion then jedi realism and its members are encouraged to keep all Jediism at totjo and not wonder about I thought I would post about it here so no one would say I am talking behind totjos back.

I hope all is well with many of the members here and I want to say congrats to roz for making it to totjo knight status. Love and light to good old jester and I will talk to all of yinz later.

TOTJO is both inclusive and exclusive. I figure that's pretty easy to see.

We've missed you Hannigan, or rather.... its been uneventful since we saw you last.

Ok, I'll bite. Been too quiet around here anyway.

Last I checked, anyone was allowed to join and participate and do the studies. is that not inclusive?

What was the TOTJO members view on this?



Walking, stumbling on these shadowfeet

Part of the seduction of most religions is the idea that if you just say the right things and believe really hard, your salvation will be at hand.

With Jediism. No one is coming to save you. You have to get off your ass and do it yourself - Me

I have never been encouraged to not wander about. In fact I joined Chicago Jedi. And shouldn't Jediism be the focus of a temple dedicated to it?

Wow connor you get a title and your still post foolish answers. Hey its all good.

Those answers were rather half assed, it would be better to see more thought out answers. I will wait a few days and see what comes up then.

I am happy to see you have joined the Chicago Jedi. Does this mean we will be seeing you at the next gathering?

From your POV I understand but why is it that we do not see many TOTJO members outside of totjo within the greater community.

I can answer that. I joined other sites only to find myself ignored or the site so quiet there was no point in posting.

It won't let me have a blank signature ...
