From the different post I have read over the last few weeks, there seem to be some confusion as to whether the above are all one and the same or whether there is a difference between them. What do you think and in what way do you see a difference between them?

It's all in the same general category: hoax.

The rest is just a dicing up into different hoaxes.

Wicca-- which may or may not include the practice of witchcraft-- is indeed a good religion. I am Wiccan.

the occult is a group of people that brain wash you into beleaving what they beleave,
witchcraft is being able to cast spells, good and bad.
spiritual channeling is a way for a guide to talk to ghosts and others on the other side.
spiritual healing i dont know this one

The "occult" is anything having to do with negative, evil spirits (Satan); "witchcraft" is any hobby picked up by people who deal with the "occult"; "spiritual channeling" is switching from CBN to the 700 Club on Sunday mornings; and "spiritual healing" is probably a session with Benny Hin. Hope that was helpful...

oops...

didn't mean to offend anyone involved in the hobby of occult...uh oh

would spiritual healing also include the Eastern cultures practices of using the mind and natural energies to heal ones self, such as Reiki?
And, aren't any of these neither inherently 'good' or 'evil'..but dependant on the intent of the person or persons practicing it ?

Actually a "cult" is a group of people who try to brainwash people into believing the way they do.

the word occult is listed as meaning hidden, obscure, concealed...... again not necessarily good or bad except to interpretation..
and hundreds of years ago would have been based in ignorance and fear...no doubt Math was once considered obscure.....another would be how something as simple as fire was considered something no one should have but the *gods.
doh can you imagine a bbq without it?
