I think that the interest in Sufism comes from the fact that people interested in learning about various religions tend to be of mystical personality, in the sense that they are interestes in mystery and contemplation. This is why we (I am definitely fit this description) tend to be attracted to traditions that are mystical/contemplative in nature: Sufism, mystic Catholicism, Buddhism, Daoism... I personally think that it is fine, as long as one respects the right for others to be attracted to other teachings.
