Is there such a thing as too much Crit for Holy Paladins?

As the topic asks, is there such a thing as having too much Crit % for Holy Paladins? As I'm gearing up, I'm finding that I sometimes have to swap out Crit Rating for other stats like Haste and MP5 (which maybe important in 3.2). The question I have is if having more and more Crit Rating a bad thing?
I'm currently sitting at 33.25% Holy Crit rating. Should I continue to improve this stat or should I focus on other stats? At what point do other Holy Paladins deem their Crit % is enough? I'll quote what EJ's says about Crit %:
Critical Strike Rating
Critical Heals end up healing for 50% more and cost 60% less mana, and 100 Spell Crit gives +2.17% crit rate at 80. Crit scale really well, but it starts out not being that great compared to other stats. This graph shows you how much effective mana is gained when you add 1% crit at varying initial crit rates. As you can see crit scales geometrically with itself, because you spend the extra mana from crit heals casting more heals which can crit. So going from 48% to 49% crit gives you twice as much mana as going from 0% to 1% crit. It also scales with how big your effective mana pool is.

Well EJ pretty much gave you your answer. The more crit you have the better it is. In other words there is not too much crit.
Ofcourse you dont want to neglect other stats but the answer to your question is simply, No (note the capital N).
