Leader of Jedi Church steps down

Barney Jones is feeling ‘detached’ from the Welsh church he helped found:

The church has 30 members locally and the “faith” has thousands of supporters worldwide. But Barney’s brother Daniel, 21, who helped found the British branch, said he was now “detached” from it.

He said : “Barney can’t hack it. We are getting mobbed by people in the street but some are poking fun.”

The aim is to have a community without bias or prejudice and apply the wisdom of Jedi characters in the Stars Wars films.

A church official declared: “The church is a force for good. We’re in the middle of sorting out a structured training programme. We’re aiming to bring the Jedi way of life to the masses.”

  1. I’m a bit torn about this. I was kinda enjoying watching the train wreck. But I feel kinda bad that his dreams were crushed.
