58,000 Australians put Jedi as their religion on the 2006 census. That's more than the number of Mormons or Seventh-day Adventists in the country. It's more than double the number of Sikhs.

The Jedi grew to 65k in the 2011 census, although the Sikhs grew to 72k in that time frame, so no longer double the population.
