This is a catch-all group for all practices that are not religions since the true definition of religion based on its roots is I rely on God. So this group includes all groups favoring false gods from nature spirits to fallen angels to Satan as well as philosophies that specify no god.
The largest occult / pagan groups are Islam and Buddhist. Islam has a separate posting area. One distressing problem with these groups is their attitude toward death, from reincarnation to simple decomposition which are both far from the truth of an angel like afterlife taught by Jesus Christ.
Some of these groups have stolen ideas from the Bible over the centuries to make their philosophies seem more intelligent. One such idea is the kingdom of God is within you. But even with superior truth added, their basics still make less sense.
One Pagan responding to the idea of needing a spiritual kingdom of God's absolute perfection to have a safe environment where the light of truth can flourish in spite or surrounding darkness wrote some souls are supposed to murder as they progress through life. The attitude that human murder is a natural thing is irrational. So is worshiping lesser spirits than Jesus Christ, the Creator.
