I think at the end of the day you to have to measure a religion somewhat at it's outcomes. In terms of actual cool guy creds taoism and zen are pretty pretty far ahead. You can all say christianity is nice and all if you attribute some jungian stuff to it, or some other kind of twist that's supposed to be deep, but at the end most christian churches are run by decadent fags and if you're unlucky full fledged pedos, preacing about poverty while riding mercedes or whatever. Yeah, in theory it's all nice and all, but I think most christian officials are hypocrites who preach water and drink wine, and if jesus was around he would flip their shit. 

Taoists and zen monks on the other hand actually might live in poverty, not just because it's doctrine but because they enjoy a simple life. They also have sense of humor that christian theologians generally lack. If I had to pick between hanging out with a christian priest and a taoist I'd pick the taoist all day everyday. 

To be fair, I'm not into the magical taoism kind of stuff, but more the philosophical branch. The taoist wizards I don't need.
