What happened to Cabbalism, Hermeticism, and the Christian version of the hedge- witch?

Isn't Kabbalah Jewish?

I try* to be careful to only use the phrase "Judeo-Christian" when I really mean exactly that, and not "Christian (but trying to sound inclusive)". Yes, Kabbalah is specifically Jewish, but there are some Christians who study it as well.

So why did I say "Judeo-Christian"? Partly because I wanted to include Kabbalah in the list (and because some Christians study that); partly because I noticed that the God of Abraham was completely unrepresented (and most of the "magickal paths" described specifically denoted other religious paths). (I did not include Islam simply because I just don't know enough about it, including what sorts of Moslem magickal practitioners there are.)


*And usually get called on it when I screw up.
