Understanding...Not
Ignorance! To arrive at some perspective on what the modern mythos
called, variously, "Wicca", the "Old Religion", "Witchcraft" and
"Neopaganism" is, we must firstly make a firm distinction; "witchcraft"
in the popular informally defined sense may have little to do with the
modern religion that goes by the same name. It has been argued by
defenders of and formal apologists for modern Wicca that it is a direct
lineal descendent of an ancient, indeed, prehistoric worldwide folk
religion. Some proponents hedge their claims, calling Wicca a "revival"
rather than a continuation of an ancient cult. Oddly enough, there never was any such cult!
