TempleOfTheJediOrder.org and TempleOfTheJediForce.org split over 12 years ago. We have never had anything to do with the for profit business now going by become the f----.

I never understood why jedi realists welcomed Jones and co after they made a mockery of us !


Jediism is more dogmatic.
Jedi realism is more open to interpretation, with most followers using it as a top-up over an existing religion.

The group is largely volunteer-based, and Jones says that the prices they’re charging for the various lectures and lessons goes toward defraying the costs of web hosting and other expenses, like the cost of lawyers. Should they avoid any more legal fees, Jones says the church hopes to raise money for volunteer work. That might include pitching in when American members’ need help covering health care expenses and performing other acts of kindness. That’s the Jedi way, which you can master right now for about $150.
