I have a great deal of respect and admiration for all religions.
I was born and raised Catholic, and I am also very attracted to Buddhist philosophy, so I would consider myself a Buddhist-Christian, and there are a lot more of us than you may think.
I admire Catholicism because of the family-like structure. Go to your local church anywhere in the world and chances are they will welcome you with open arms no matter what your religion is. If you're ever need of help and advice, even if you are homeless and alone, go to a church and they will take care of you. The Catholic church gets a bad rep but honestly they are some of the friendliest, warm-hearted people you will ever meet. The most important part: The story of Jesus is a source of inspiration and love.
Buddhism is a beautiful thing that really guides people on the path to happiness through compassion. Buddha taught to respect all religions and embrace people no matter who they are and what they've done. Meditation is an awesome tool to get there.
