Rejected petition Make Jediism an officially recognised religion within UK.

In the UK alone over 500,000 people follow this new philosophy and yet it isn't officially recognised. In April 2015 Turkish students signed a petition to have a temple built on campus so the UK wouldn't be the only one.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions have to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We are not sure what you mean by "an officially recognised religion". There is no list of "official religions" kept by the Government.

You could start a new petition clearly setting out the action you would like to see happen.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
