I came to Rails after years of working with PHP and ColdFusion.  But I 
wouldn't recommend relating Rails to either one.  Instead, learn it on 
its own merits.  That includes learning the Ruby language on its own 
merits.

If you try to relate Ruby to PHP or Rails to (say) Fusebox, you probably 
won't learn to write *idiomatic* Rails.
