More Americans admire Jews than Catholics, Muslims, evangelicals or atheists, a poll showed. Jews received a 77 percent favorable rating in a poll published last week by the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life that assessed attitudes toward Muslims. Catholics scored 73 percent, Protestant evangelicals and Muslims each got 57 percent and atheists earned 35 percent.
