occult

Funnel (business) model:
astrology; new age; yoga; self-help books; crystals; horoscopes; Ouija boards; rabbits feet and charms; pentagrams; transcendental meditation; death metal music; technology; abortion; pornography; magic

Religious model:
sin; pride; ritualism (if I asked God for help and didn't get it, maybe I didn't say it right); cafeteria Catholicism; worshipping/summoning demons and good/bad spirits; nihilism; Satanism; bating (Eve taking the fruit was the first act of superstition); moon and ghost water; sage smudging/burning; mother earth; ecumenism

I would add doomsday cults and religions that practice shunning.

Shield model:
rules, reason, and religious practices; Latin Mass; confession; virtue, which is justice owed God

Sometimes, it will happen that a priest tells you something that is hard, and that has happened to me. I grumbled and complained to God for weeks and had to accept what I was told. What’s the difference? A priest is a successor to the apostles. No one else has apostolic succession.
