Are there any religions or cults that you just do not understand? With in reason.

I'll be honest that Wicca does confuse me more than most religions. It's such a contrived religion. It was completely invented in the 1920's based on erroneous research. But while I don't understand it I realise that unlike dangerous cults it's a rather benign religion.

Paganism is a broad term, but religions such as Druidism I understand much more than Wicca. They're based on ancient beliefs that made up the human understanding of the world at the time.

True, but it's not so much like that anymore, a lot of Wiccans are solitary. They do their own research and incorporate whatever makes sense. I suppose it's a reason I like it, since you chose what makes sense to you and no one tells you off. But yeah, even if Gardner was erroneous, he did revive it, at least. He made it possible for people to rediscover it and have an alternative religion.

But yeah, right now I'm just a Pantheist with great respect for nature. It's just that Paganism and Wicca fascinate me. I really like to read about them.

Ok, I understand the Trinity now (thank you Player1x3) but it still doesn't make sense to me. I do respect Jesus though and see the appeal to follow his teachings.
