Is it neccesary, in Witchcraft,or Wicca, To cast a cirlce even while doing a simple spell??Please answer, i need help.
You do not "need" a circle to perform rituals in either witchcraft or Wicca. But, in like every religion, there is a point in doing the whole ritual. Casting a circle and doing the complete ritual tunes your mind and your body to your selected task. Is it necessary with all rituals? No. Simple candle magick does not require you to cast a circle. Simple binding spells do not require you to cast a circle. It all depends on what kind of ritual you are performing and whether or not you are an actual Witch or Wiccan or a fake that sees this as an easy means to an end.
I suggest you research both a little more before you do anything.

Is Wiccan like some cult thing?
Wicca is just another religion and all religions are considered to be a cult in one way or another. The whole basis of Wicca is to harm none. There is no ritual sacrifice. And rituals are performed just like rituals are performed in Christianity, Judaism, Buddism, etc. Wiccans are not evil they just have different religious beliefs than other religions.
And that star in a circle is called a pentagram. If it were upside down it would be an Anti-Christ symbol. Wiccans can believe in Christ and the Christian god. It's a very loose religion where you can basically believe what you want without the ramifications that other religions put on their faith.

Alright, i'm looking for a religion. I'm not christian, i know that. It doesn't feel right.
I'm kind of thinking about being a wiccan, my friend said it would be perfect for me. She was looking for a religion for a while like i am, but she found wicca, and she really likes it.
Does anyone out there know what its all about, or have any good sites about it?
Books I would recommend for the beginner are:
Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner by Scott Cunningham
and
Living Wicca: A Further Guide for the Solitary Practitioner by Scott Cunningham.
Both can be found at http://www.llewellyn.com or your local library.
Websites to check out:
http://www.wicca.com/ , http://www.wicca.org/ , http://www.witchvox.com/ , http://www.witchway.net/ , etc.
Hope this helps and Blessed Be.
