One of my mom's friends identified as a "Catholic Buddhist" before he passed away from a severe disease he was diagnosed with.  I was a bit intrigued, but I never got around to doing a little research on it until, well, now.  I haven't gotten through all the material yet, but I've noticed several parallels between Buddhism and Christianity (or at least, New Age-style Christianity that myself and others practice).  But I wanted to read what other frequenters of this board think.

Aren't there parellels between all religions? What's so different about Budhism and Catholicsm?

I suppose you could say that.  The differences lie mostly between dogmatic teachings.  Buddhists do not necessarily follow Christ as a figure, but walk in what is virtually the same moral path.  The same could be said for Christians who don't emphasize on dogma, or at the very least put it second to existing wisely, ethically, and lovingly.  We may not all be on the same boat, yet we travel along the same river.

When you say the "same moral path", don't you think tha could be applied to any religion.

That's basically my point.
