Wicca and Satanism are two distinct religious practices that often get compared or confused due to their associations with witchcraft and the occult. While they both fall under the umbrella of alternative spiritual paths, there are significant differences between the two. Wicca is a modern pagan religious movement that emerged in the mid-20th century. It is rooted in ancient European traditions and believes in the reverence of nature and the worship of a pantheon of deities. Wiccans follow the "Wiccan Rede," which emphasizes the rule of "Harm none, do what you will." They uphold the concept of karmic repercussions and strive to bring harmony and balance into their lives.

The band most recently toured with My Chemical Romance, and Angels and Airwaves.

Joan Jett & The Blackhearts
Does Joan Jett really need an introduction to music fans? Okay. Here it goes: Do the classic rock gems “I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll,” “Crimson and Clover” and “I Hate Myself for Loving You” ring a bell? They should. But Jett is more than a female rock goddess. Rolling Stone also named her No. 87 on its list of the greatest guitarists of all time.

Satanists hold different views and can be divided into theistic and atheistic branches. Theistic Satanism involves the actual worship of Satan as a deity, while atheistic Satanism, such as the Church of Satan, views Satan as a symbol of individualism, rebellion, and nonconformity. Satanism does not involve evil rituals or acts, as commonly perceived, but rather focuses on individual empowerment and the pursuit of personal desires. In terms of their rituals and ceremonies, Wicca typically follows a structured system of rituals and celebrations, known as the Wheel of the Year, which includes Sabbats and Esbats. Wiccans often practice magic and spellwork, which is seen as a way to influence the natural forces in conjunction with personal will. In contrast, Satanism does not have a standardized set of rituals, and its practices vary greatly depending on the individual or group. Another significant distinction between Wicca and Satanism is the moral and ethical framework they adhere to. Wicca promotes a strong sense of personal responsibility and encourages actions that benefit oneself, others, and the environment. Satanism, particularly the atheistic branches, emphasizes personal freedom and individualism, acknowledging subjective morality and rejecting societal norms that suppress individual desires. In summary, while both Wicca and Satanism share certain elements related to alternative spiritual practices and the perception of witchcraft, they diverge significantly in their beliefs, values, and philosophies. Wicca is rooted in nature worship, embraces harmony and balance, and promotes personal growth through magic. Satanism, on the other hand, encompasses a range of beliefs centered around the veneration or symbolic appreciation of Satan, emphasizing individualism and personal desires..
