There are many reasons you might be drawn to religious/spiritual systems that don't conform to your personal beliefs, but one major reason would be aesthetics. The aesthetics of certain religious/spiritual systems might appeal to you for two primary reasons; it's either certain religious/spiritual systems seem fancy to you, or they seem taboo to you. For instance, Catholicism seems fancy to me, which means Catholicism has aesthetic appeal in my mind. On the other hand, Satanism seems taboo to me, which means Satanism also has aesthetic appeal in my mind.
