Tarot Wicca
Does it go against Catholicity to learn Tarot Cars or research witchcraft?
I was in a book store yesterday and I came across a shelve dedicated to Wicca and Witchcraft. I found a book on the history of witchcraft with spells and holidays and whatnot. I also found a deck of Tarot Cards. I find both witchcraft and Tarot Reading a facinating concept, and I was thinking about buying the book and the cards for the sake of research. But the thing is, I'm a life-long Catholic and was recently confirmed. Would my intentions be considered worshiping Wicca or sacreligious? Of course I don't really believe in fortunes, I just think it could be interesting to learn to read tarot cards and read about witchcraft. So, what do you think?
Yeah, I knew the word I used wasn't correct but I couldn't remember how to spell Catholicism xD oh and by the way I wouldn't be practicing the religion, just researching. If practicing includes tarot reading then I will skip that part.
I'm sure there's nothing wrong with research. Personally, I think everyone should research other religious beliefs. It promotes religious understanding of one another, and helps us to avoid sounding like idiots in religious debates. I don't see how there's ever a reason to suppress knowledge, at least not when it comes to something like religion. I also feel that if you avoid researching other religions because you fear that they'll shake your faith or lead you down an unwanted path, you never had true faith in your religion in the first place. I think the Catholic Church generally frowns on the use of Tarot cards even "for fun", but I would seriously question a religion if it disallowed the seeking of knowledge about other religions.
Venus Bless
Edit: By "for fun" I meant mock divination, not card games. Philebus is right about the card game usage of Tarot cards.
