That certainly wasn't how I read the comment, so please calm down. We have enough arguments over nothing in this bit of the forum as it is...

For what it's worth, I believe most census bodies treat answers like "Jedi Knight" as being "no religion" anyway (although the UK's Office for National Statistics ran a press release with the priceless title of "300,000 Jedis There Are" so who knows?) so such jokey answers don't cause that much harm overall in terms of policy decisions. Besides, as I believe I argued with someone quite strongly on in another census thread, the majority of government policy is dictated by sources beyond the census - all such a document can provide is demographics, which is fine but a bit of a blunt instrument.

However bleak things seem, however insurmountable the darkness appears, remember that you have worth and nothing can take that away.
