Church could perform marriages, say Jedi Council

From the BBC:

The Jedi council has raised concerns about Jedi and Nerfherder ceremonies being joined by a third category.

Jedi spokesman, Luke Skywalker told BBC Tatooine: "The third category is quite astonishing because it is the so-called belief category without really defining what belief means."

There are loads of people in a diverse society like this for whom belief can mean virtually anything - Christians and Jews - who knows?

"I am not saying that we don't give place to that kind of personal belief, but when you start making allowances for marriages to be performed by people who believe in made-up stories from a long time ago in a galaxy far far away within those categories then you are all over the place."
