of the bible, I know of none that are creationists.

I have many very devout Catholic friends. One nun is also an Astrologer at the homeless shelter for battered women and children that she runs at age 80 or something.

There are all sorts of mystical elements to this very huge religion that incorporated the greek gods into Judaism- that elevates Mary as the "Mother of God" . I know that the Catholic faith has a wide assortment of actual beliefs within it.
