most likely they would have to, I know from english classes a few years back there are a few religions in NZ with only something like 400 people...

Ich bin ein Neuseelander!

Could we get Battenburger as a religion. Beats being a jam doughnut.

It's worth a try... someone should start a Poll to see how many Kiwibikers will actually write Kiwibiker as their religion...

I'm sticking with Jedi for my religion.

Am I a New Zealander? Course I am, I was born here, what else would I be!

Well, I've filled in my census form, and since I'm only a permanent resident, I wrote South African, BUT, I did put my religion as KiwiBiker

hope everyone does too...

I heard that if you tick "other' and put in "New Zealander" they lumped you into NZ European anyway regardless whatever type of New Zealander you are....

But you're not supposed to fill it in until census night, don't you realise that makes the statistics completely invalid? You thick SAffer!

They do. The stubborn bastiges are determined to make everybody that ain't maori into European. But they are getting so much flak that they have made a meaningless concession.

What difference does it really make? I can see into my future, that on census night I'll be where I've already written... and who are the government to say I have to fill it out at a certain time of day? Are they planning on having a TV show telling you to go onto question 2 after 30 seconds?

I guess I need to start putting p/t at the end of such posts, kind of spoils it really....

sorry, but what does 'p/t' stand for? oh, and just in case, i wasn't verbally attacking you :S I just feel the government have some stupid rules in place, and I plan to bend them as much as possible wherever I can
