31. At least Catholicism has history and tradition... Judaism too...
I respect Catholicism and Judaism more than the fundie-Christian crap. I went to Rome this summer and was in awe at the Vatican. I don't buy the religious bits, but the history and the tradition and the sheer fervor of the worshippers and pilgrims (yes, pilgrims, one man serenading the pope's apartment very early Saturday AM, another man in a shirt and tie on his knees praying in the middle of St. Peters)...

The passion was evident. I find that in Judaism too, and in fact dated a number of Jewish guys in my 20's. I appreciate those religions for their history and tradition.

Fundie Christians? The sick trash of western religion to me...
