Witchcraft does not require the wholesale acceptance of other people's beliefs from anyone. Witchcraft does not require anyone to apply another practitioner's beliefs and frameworks to their practice, no matter how much authority they speak with or how many followers they have.

People believe in so many different things. Whether they practice a different religion (or none at all), every individual will have faith in different things, different abilities, different actions.

We, as individuals, hold no authority over any other individual or how they practice. We do hold authority over our own actions, beliefs, and how we handle/react to outside stimuli.
