And also with you

And also with you

The Issue

We want Colin Trevorrow, the director of Star Wars Episode IX, to include a short dialogue in his film where one or several characters respond to "May the Force be with you" with "...and also with you."

Ever since "Star Wars" was first released in 1977, Catholics, Presbyterians, and Lutherans have instinctually wanted to respond to "May the Force be with you" with "...and also with you."  This comes from a response given several times throughout Mass where the priest would say "Peace be with you," and the congregation responded "...and also with you."

Although the response during mass was changed in 2008 to "...and with your spirit," old habits die hard, and the former response would be more appropriate dialogue for a Star Wars film.
