First of all, there are three schools of the Kabbalah
Traditional Kabbalah
Christian Kabbalah
Hermetic Kabbalah

Christian Kabbalah is similar to traditional(Jewish) Kabbalah except it also works on interpreting the new testament. Also, you completely misunderstood my post. I never said Judaism or Christianity worships multiple gods. They both worship one God but while God is usually looked at as a male, God is actually both. The female aspect is known as Shekinah and the Male aspect is known as YHVH. If you look at the Etz Chim, you'll see that both aspects are reflected in the sephirah. Kether is gender neutral. Then, it splits into both Chockmah and Binah. The union of those two originally produced Malkuth, the path connecting Kether to Malkuth broke however when Adam and Eve sinned and Malkuth swung down to it's present place creating the other sephirah in it's way in the form of the so called "lightning flash of creation" because the path it took is shapped like a zig zag. Where Malkuth used to be is now a hole known ad Da'at. As for Wicca haveing a set belief system, I suggest you first research how it got started and then read the Alexandrian book of shadows which lays down many strict rules that no one follows nowdays.

I thank each of you for your input, your ideas have been very helpful. I see merit in each comment, and my decision is, to keep my beliefs sacred, I am going to drop religious labels in their entirety. A very good point was brought up, that religion is to be respected, and mix/matching is not the way I personally want to go about it... So while my beliefs themselves have not changed a bit, I am simply removing the confusion of clashing titles from the equation.
