So, outside of the movies, is the Jedi & Sith thing an actual religion or just a way of life? I've seen a couple of discussions here before but my intuition tells me it's just a way for fat fanboys to geek out irl.

Way of life, technically speaking, last I was aware of. The 'Jedi' way shares much in common with Daoism, but with a more body odor and Cheeto's scented fan base. The 'Sith' way is basically any generic left hand path type schtick. I mean, if somebody wants to live by a set of ideals that introduces structure and fulfillment in to their spiritual development while calling themselves a Jedi, why the fuck not? I mean honestly, all religions are "made up" at some point, may as well do what makes you most comfortable instead of letting others dictate what makes you comfortable.

Yeah this. It's just ideals. Jedi are peaceful and open-minded and patient. The first line of their code is "there is no emotion, there is peace." so that they don't like, overreact to shit. Also no attachment.
Sith are passionate, they aren't afraid to be afraid. And they believe that the Jedi are just hurting themselves and making them weaker by holding all of their emotions in.

The difference between a Jedi and a Sith is in the fall of a person. A Jedi can fall, or they can fight to stay with the ways of love. A Sith is one who falls, and embraces their fall. With the power of the force, a thought can kill, actions ripple throughout creation and influence the fates of many. When one surrenders to power, the power of destruction, the chaos, they fall. Imagine losing control of your emotions, and killing, destroying, maiming. A Jedi will seek redemption, forgiveness, but a Sith will not. A Sith believes that compassion that prevents one from harm, from power over others, is a weakness. They no longer fight to prevent the harm to themselves, they no longer resist the pain, and use it to fuel their rage and power. When a Sith falls, there is nothing left for them but death.
