When you think that the three western faiths are built upon each other its sometimes easy to consider them so interchangeable.

I was brought up attending a protestant school going to church but there was little actual meaning taught to me as a child it was stand up here recite this amen and Christmas and Easter spent in a draftee church freezing my butt off.

but as i grew older i began to study my own beliefs and try and get them to reconcile with not only the church but with the wider world around me it was only when i study the old testament that i committed to conversion to Judaism
I’ve been kosher for four and half years and studying the torah for much of that time observing the high holidays (btw holidays that only you celebrate aren't quite so fun)

My faith is my best guess at a good way to lead my life, following as many mitzvahs as I can and in my studying Judaism has taught me the value of reason and logic tempered with compassion and faith

Descartes was a truly Jew at heart
And i think your crush on Catholicism is just hat envy ...cos the pope's does look pretty cool compared to our little black cap or ZZ top inspired wide brim cowboy hats
