personally, I would like if some vamp show/whatever only let religious icons have as much power as the holder had faith. Like a hindu man would not be able to pick up a crucifix and ward away a vampire like a catholic man (who believed) could :)

Great minds think alike, as we posted our replies at the exact same time...

THIS SO MUCH! Which means then that Buffy's little crosses and junk wouldn't really have worked, as it wasn't shown she was particularly religious, just using them for their generic power.

On Being Human, there's some neat stuff with the werewolf's star of David. His best friend is a vampire and the vampire can hold the werewolf's star of David without ill effect, but when the werewolf uses it to ward off a "bad" vampire, that vampire experiences ill effects. The difference is in the talisman-wielder's intention against the vampire.

Yeah, I figure any religious symbol would work besides a cross. It makes sense.
