Since you were raised Catholic, I am surprised that you consider anointment with holy oil to be nutty - Catholics are anointed with holy oil at baptism, confirmation, extreme unction, and I think when a man becomes a priest or a woman becomes a nun. And then there's the holy water, every time you go into church and come out of church, and the ashes on Ash Wednesday.

I don't call these superstitions, I call them sacraments.

Taking communion and fasting may seem supersitious to some, too, I guess.

When I was travelling, a Hindu once called me a cannibal. I'm serious. So was she.
A cannibal.
Can anybody guess why?

I know some of you guys, so I'll tell you from the get go, it's not that B-)
