Please don`t lecture me or say "its just a T.V. show" or "That is against God." Whatever you say isn`t changes my beliefs, but it might help me to find people who have similar beliefs and learn from them. If you don`t have an answer, don`t bother because I`ll report you if you lecture or critize me for my beliefs.
Having said that, if you can give me a brief description of that religions beliefs, that would be great. If not, I`ll look it up.
Thanks.

They referenced Wicca a lot on the show, but they didn't practice Wicca-never a mention of the Lord and Lady. More like an eclectic blend of paganism, like their own style.
They had a bit of angels, and witchcraft, but no actual deities or firm beliefs were ever mentioned. if you are looking for something similar, paganism with witchcraft is about as close as you can get.

i am not trying to lecture you, but it is just a tv show. there is no religion that teaches what that show taught. in fact many Pagans see that show as detremantal to our belief system.
i would encourage you to look into any Pagan religion. but do not expect to be fighting demons or even poltergiest's. some of us do believe in negative entities and even possession and exorcisim. and some of us do fight against these things that we believe are here to cause harm to us and our families. but even that small percentage of us that believe this way. will spend 10 times more time reading and designing rituals to bring positive influence into our lives than we will fighting against the bad influences.
without knowing what your beliefs are, it is impossible for me to recomend a path for you to look into. but it is probably better that way. take some time and read as many books as you can get your hands on (by accredited authors) and learn what is out there. you will find something that fits your lifestyle.

Let me put it this way, satan can sometimes make soemthing look spicey, like a half truth. The show charmed has magic on it so whats wrong with it??? You could say the same thing with Marjawana (can't spell it)(Mary jane) Its not addicting for some people, it gets you high, but doesn't seem to have bad effects, some people even use it to help fight pain, so whats wrong with it...usually it leads to other drugs addictions like meth or cocain because you think if you can handel the mary jane, you can handel the big time drugs and no one can. Its the same with Charmed, a nice pretty package and then you get into the real stuff like I did and end up cursing yourself becuase you find out the magic is not in nature, but it is really the power of satan and he doesn't play around when you use his power.

A lot of people think "Wicca" but believe it or not, Wicca isn't about "vanquishing demons" or "whitelighters" or "the power of three will set us free".
Yeah, they called their hereditary text a "Book of Shadows" but that's about as much "Wiccan" influence as the show has.
There is very, very, VERY little in that show that could be considered "religious" - I'm hard-pressed to recall any discussions of the Divine.

What are your beliefs? Do you have any source for your beliefs that has any credibility or logic behind it? You really seem to be what they often call "CLOSED MINDED" Do you really know so much that nothing I can say that would be critical of your beliefs could be right. Wow! Do you have all the answers to all the great questions about life? You must be one of those legends in your own mind. I am truly afraid for your sanity and your future. It looks pretty dark from my vantage point.

It is a combination of Ancient Celtic Mysticism and modern teen-witch stereotypes. The demon thing is purely Christian but it adds the drama.

Its a wicked evil show that shows exactly what the Bible clearly says to not do, watch, worship nor practice.
