Some people approach Islam as a means to be pious and humble and "achieve spiritual ends". That does not change the fact that Islam teaches incredibly violent things. Islam doesn't simply say gays are bad, it says you should kill them. It doesn't say you should not stray from the religion, it says you should be murdered in cold blood if you do. It calls on it's followers to do these heinous things. Just because not all Muslims do them does not change the fact that Islam teaches it, and even requires it. Just because some occultists don't follow the teachings doesn't mean the occult is not about that.

So no, I am not misinformed just because there are people who claim to be occultists and don't follow the teachings. All relativism degenerates into conflict. Without the ability to say that one person is wrong and the other right there can not be a peaceful resolution. And giving examples of other theologies, or other areas where people degenerate in this way does not change the fact that this is what the occult teaches. It doesn't excuse the occult to say others do it too. It is simply a nasty belief system that can only create a violent, unjust, tyrannical and oppressive society.
