Re: 'Batmanism': a valid religion? -

The Jedi beliefs were accepted as a valid religion by whom? To my knowledge, there is no comity that validates a religion. Religions just all have a central theme to them. However, Jediism would, to my mind, more valid. Why? On the Jedi Church website it says they essentially believe in the supernatural (as anyone familiarized with Star Wars would know). Batman, on the other hand, is a human, never claimed to be supernatural, and only used gadgets for his powers. For Batmanism to even be considered a valid religion, I think, it would have to have incorporated some sort of supernatural belief.
