Chrism? I thought only Catholics used it too, until I looked it up and found out it's common in "eastern" churches (I don't know if that also means "eastern religions" or what). Maybe it is only common among Catholics.

Yes, but still a word with religious connotations. I was going more for the kind of words that I *thought* had only meanings related to religion, but that turned out to mean other things altogether--like virgin, for example. ;-)

I'm pretty sure that Indiana Jones used the term "penitent", although he quoting a Catholic.
As for circumcision, have you heard of Judaism?

Seanahan--Judaism? What's that? ;-)
I first heard these words so many years ago that I've lost count. "The Feast of the Circumcision" was all I knew then, and who ever bothered to tell us J.C. was Jewish in the first place?
