Pardon the second post, I cant see the first one so im make sure this got posted.
The Jedi Forum's Code/Creed is the same universal orthodox Creed/Code the one at TOTJO and TOTJF. This serves twofold purpose:
one to show that UJSO has nothing to hide. There is equality at our order, nothing more, nothing less. Since all walk paths of peace and search only for knowledge and experience we seek none. We keep true to our individual choices and beliefs, but we share the knowledge and experience we gained going thru them.
Two, to show again for the upteenth time that I personally am A Jedi. Which hasn't changed and honestly I profess, I am growing weary of having to prove myself over and over again. Im done this is the last time. My actions and beliefs have been the same since I started practicing Jediism. Since they haven't changed and I have always shown Jediist practices, can we be done now? Because I believe that Jedi and Sith should try a peaceful existence becuase trying to existingish one or the other ends in pain, which none want. We are doing it there and we hold our own.
Below is the Creed listed as the Jedi Creed on UJSO, which again Master Caedus hasn't had time to post because of his military duties at the US Presidental Inaugeration. He informed be yesterday he will be posting it when he gets home tonight at approx. 0000 CST. So now TOTJO has both, though the Sith Code was taken out of context by a member who did not read all of the post on which it was laid. I can tell you no one uses this code at UJSO the one posted by a member didnt read the entire post. That was the FICTIONAL Sith Code. For your information the Sith Creed is the same at TOTS and most other sith sites was, the Samurai Creed. The fictional creed is more or less the one posted on TOTJF again it was taken out of context, it was meant to show the difference between Movie Sith and Real Sith. Like I said, no one is going to condone or encourage murder. If anything the sith Creed looks like a individualistic and Independentist creed. Is that bad, no. Its different and as Jedi do we live by that creed, no. Does that mean we must shun and hate those who do? Kinda goes against our doctrine of accepting other religions. As for Jedi there. Only Sith can see the Sith forum. No Jedi outside of the Admins can.
We have no fight with TOTJO, All of us want happiness and to move forward. Now you can see no Jedi is Practicing Sith, nor Sith practicing Jedi. However, we share ideas and experiences. Just like the Rites do at TOTJO there are very few places where Christian/Jewish and Muslims *who have a huge history fighting* can come together. None there have acted in a violent fashion toward me or any Jedi. Most are looking for a safe place to learn without prosecution.
One of the big questions is how can you be a Jedi and share a home with a Sith? good question and the answer is that you know the other is, that they believe differently. So you stick to your beliefs, they stick to thiers, yet you can still come together and share information. NO Jedi at UJSO is prcticing sithism, and NO Sith is Practicing Jediism. There is no need because both are in house.
One additional thing. Since my membership and Master Status was attained through TOTJO and I keep my position there for training apprentices in TOTJO Jedi Practices. It was decided from the UJSO Council that I Serve as Ambassador to TOTJO- Pending EC approval of course. This can be confirmed through Master Caedus as needed. Since previous communication lapses and mistakes were made, I will serve as the conduit to and from UJSO for all information offical. This way no miscommunication can happen. I am not a internet book, I will not move things between Temples, as I have shown this week even. Some answers I will not give from the Temple to the Order, same with the vice-versa.
By good graces, Master Caedus has arrived home early and the creeds are posted on the UJSO Homepage. The Jedi Creed is below, the Sith one is not going to be published by me, unless asked for by the EC.
The Jedi Creed
I believe in The Living Force Of Creation:
I am a Jedi, an instrument of peace;
Where there is hatred I shall bring love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.
I am a Jedi.
I shall never seek so much to be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
The Force is always with me, for I am a Jedi.
