What religion am I?

Question

I believe in witchcraft; like spells and potions, and I believe in demons and warlocks and other "mytholigical" creatures. I believe in good battling evil and that good witches fight demons and warlocks. I believe in a lot of the Wiccan Rede. Don`t tell me I`m Christian, because I`ve already learned a ton about it, and I`m not. I don`t know what speciffic God or Goddess I believe in, but I believe in more than one. My religion does not match up with Wicca, from what research I`ve done. If you have any other questions about my beliefs, ask me them in your answer and I`ll add things into Additional Details.

Thanks.

I said that my beliefs don`t match up with the Wiccan religion!!!

I protect people from black magic. I do spells and potions and rituals.
Also, I believe that some people are born with powers (i.e., telekinesis, psychic abilities, astral projection, ect.)

I don`t believe in or worship Satan or the anti-Christ or any other evil!!!

Answer 1

why do you have to have a religion why can't you just have your own idea's and belief. Religion is for those who meet every week a listen to some guy give his interpretation of his religion. I do not know why someone would say your christian from what I understand about christianity it preaches against all witch craft.

Answer 2

I know that mythology can be very alluring, but Demons and Warlocks don't exist, at least not in the sense that you appear to believe in them. Warlock is not the name of an evil being, and Demon is simply a name given to bad spirits.

I am a Witch, and like you, I don't follow Wicca as a whole, but do follow some of it's doctrines.

As for other mythological creatures, I am not sure as I have never seen or had contact with them, but who knows.

I do know this, Witches do not fight evil being like Demons and Warlocks, this is not 'Charmed', even though I love that show. Don't believe what Hollywood throws at you, it is make believe, I should know, I first got into Witchcraft around the time 'The Craft' was popular among teens to watch and emulate.

I love the idea that there might be Werewolves and Vampires, but I don't dwell on it too much, and right now, until I know otherwise, they are simply fictional beings.

Some people do have abilities or 'gifts' such as telepathy or telekinesis, but they do not manifest themselves like those of the Halliwell sisters. It would be cool if they did! But they don't.

Being a Witch is not necessarily being any religion, but it is a branch of Paganism, so you could call yourself a Pagan.

I wouldn't worry about which particular Gods or Goddesses you revere, as it took me ten years to finally contact the ones I now revere. They will come to you when you are ready.

Answer 3

You are an 'Eclectic Pagan'. Pagan covers a slew of pre-Christian and polytheist religions and Eclectic means you draw on what you find to work best for or is the most meaningful to you. I would guess that you are at least a little similar in your belief to myself. I follow a lot of the Wiccan belief, but not all of it.

Answer 4

Spirituality is born from a personal occurrence with a divine, psychic or mystical experience of one form or another which inevitably connects a person to All that Is/God/Goddess/Allah/Great Spirit /whatever you want to call it.

Religion is second hand opinion of someone else’s divine experience. I think you will find that religions, and especially fanatical religions, tend to separate and divide people, while spirituality brings people together.

Thank God that Spirituality is on the increase!

Answer 5

You are a member of the neo-pagan movement, and their beliefs are a hodgpodge of various earth energy based religions. Usually the religion is more about the persons desire to be different and to teach those around them to be less judgmental.... I did like seeing it come to knock the conservatives off their feet a little. too funny...you would probably have better luck finding peace in Buddhism, Hinduism or Sufism. Right now sufism is growing and will be the next kewl pop religion......

Answer 6

Your beliefs don't jibe with anything that I've encountered. But you have not supplied a lot of details about what you do believe in. My take: don't bother trying to label it -- just try to refine it to conform to data. And as for responder acc, you're nuts.

Answer 7

Have you tried www.beliefnet.com? There is a survey on there, that although takes a while to get through, can be at least a start on what religion you might want to learn more about.

Answer 8

You just might have to start your own religion. I have some beliefs that don't go along with the "norm".
Sometimes there's just no category for somethings. Why bother looking?

Answer 9

You could only be described as a New Age Satanist.
Good witches? Bad witches? Multiple gods and goddesses?

Even good witches draw their power from the Powers of Darkness.
Multiple gods/godesses? Polytheistic worship of many gods that are not God.

Do you have your crystals yet? How about your aromatherapy, reflexology, yoga, and Rieki?

You have chosen from a menu of pagan, Satanic, and wiccan religious practices. All of them displace God from His rightful position in our lives, therefore, all of them are the spirit of anti-christ.

You are a New Age smorgasbord.

Answer 10

You could check out Zoroastrianism. A large part of that is based on the balance between good and evil.
