Whereas in the UK the government had to issue a statement saying that recognised religions did not derive purely from census results I did read that you can get a religion recognised by having it on a certain percentage of returns in Australia. Any of our Aussie friends want to tell me if I'm right here?

If an advisor says to me "My liege, he is but one man. What can one man possibly do?", I will reply "This." and kill the advisor.

  You do know about the Jedi thing in the UK, don't you?  On a recent 
  census, a tremendous number of people wrote "Jedi" or "Jedi knight" 
  on their census forms for the name of the religion to which they 
  subscribe.  Subsequently, conflicting reports emerged from the UK as 
  to whether "Jedi" was to be an officially-recognized religion by the 
  British government!  My husband and I were really cracking up over 
  this...Does anyone know whether a final decision was reached?
