Every bible reader knows that Babylonian astrology is outside the bounds of Jewish teaching or living protocols, but I was also able to verify this fact with research by exploring the ideas from a mechanical and extrapolation based module of thinking.
Now I have concluded that both the Chinese zodiac and the Jewish Kabbalah fall into the same level of non-religious recommendation as Babylonian astrology.
I am not saying all Kabbalah is outside the bounds of religious thinking and pursuit, a lot of it agrees with Jewish thought and morality, but some of it, might be an unintentional extension of pagan belief systems, that the religious traditions have not detected or realized due to a lack of analysis or comparative inquiry.
I would say the reason some religious people are corrupt, is that they use pagan ideas or behaviours to process, articulate, and govern their religious mode of living and thinking.
For example, I have met Christians who judge other Christians based on their level of power and their level of passivity to doctrine, when the bible teaches independence in thinking, and attractiveness in compassion. They worship social power more than they worship the love of God and their understanding of God is deluded by their own pride and vanity so they worship their deluded image of God, instead of worshiping the biblical spirit of God.

Its clear that you dived into this topic deeply and wild and you consider and compared.. but I wanted to say the fact that in Christianity things are in hierarchy, from church to Gods, that enhance automatically the power dynamics.. and another small details with what I can't sit well its that the fact that Christianity called and make themselves the judge of what religion is pagan and what is bad in this.. the authority to call things doesn't mean necessary that it's the ultimate truth, as dillemas and flaws are in that if to analyse.. because follow their book, the bible they went to make atrocities with passion in God name.. and we should not forget that Rome and Europeans used Christianity used such belief as a reason to press other nations and profits from it... the exact Rome which Crucified Its God, Jesus
The only Christianity I recognize is the bible and the kind people who love and respect each other while claiming to believe in God. If somebody prays and fasts but makes racist comments and mocks poor people, I do not treat them like a Christian, I treat them like an enemy who hates Jesus.
religion is a waste of time and a joke meant only to divide and control the general population
