Why? It doesn't mean 15 000 actually believe in the existence of the Force et al. They are simply mocking religious affiliation. Even if they were, I don't see how being geeky qualifies as being an idiot - I'd say quite the contrary is true.

I compiled a WVS chart on the subject:

Czechs are very indifferent towards religion unlike Poles. Christianity does not play serious role in shaping their identity. That's why they are quite likely to "identify" as jedis, spaghetti monster believers and etc.

I have to disagree: I bet most of them really concede relevance to Lucas' filosofy...obvious not to the point considering themselves Jedis. :cool:

Ps. And that's unfair, it's a syntom of heavily colonized minds to concede a certain degree of relevance to an ad-hoc minimum-common-denominator filosofy crafted for a fucking film (for nice of watching as it was)...as I first stated. :coffee:

And perhaps Slovaks identify as Sith. :p

Oh sith! So maybe Yoda was in fact a Czech?:
