I wonder why it is that non-Catholics want to receive the Compostella from
the Catholic Church?  Some will even lie as to their intentions for going on
the Camino in order to get it.  Is it because they just want a trophy or
certificate to show off to their friends/family back home to prove they did
walked the last 100km.  Or is there more?
