英国的一位星球大战粉丝兼国际绝地教教徒Chris Jarvis被从当地的一家就业中心赶出，因为就业中心以安全理由要求身着奇装异服的绝地武士“客户”摘掉头盔或头罩。在被就业中心轰出之后，Jarvis提起了一项投诉，三天后该就业中心主管亲笔写下了道歉书，称他们承诺为客户提供良好服务，倡导多元文化，尊重客户的宗教信仰。绝地教于2001年被认可为一种宗教，是一种建立在《星际大战》教义基础上的非有神论的宗教信仰，据称英语国家有超过50万自称是绝地教教徒。

A JEDI believer won an apology from a Jobcentre which threw him out for refusing to remove his hood.
Star Wars fan Chris Jarvis, 31, was told he would have to leave if he did not take it down.

Chris is a member of the International Church of Jediism - based on the sci-fi films - whose doctrine states that followers should be allowed to wear hoods.

But when he protested, security escorted him from his local branch in Southend, Essex.

He filled out a complaint form - and received a formal letter from the JobCentre Plus branch's boss just three days later.

Wendy Flewers apologised, adding: "We are committed to provide a customer service which embraces diversity and res-pects customers' religion."

Chris said: "I was just standing up for my beliefs.

"Muslims can walk around in whatever religious gear they like, so why can't I?"

Southend Jobcentre Plus refused to comment yesterday.

A Department for Work and Pensions spokesperson said: "Customers may be asked by Jobcentre staff to remove their helmets and hoods for security reasons."

这位老兄并不是穿着“奇装异服”，而仅仅是不愿意摘下兜帽而已。
这位老兄长这个样子：
