About

What is modern Paganism, and how does it relate to witchcraft, Druidry and other phenomena? This lecture is designed to answer that question, and in doing so provide an overview of the different traditions that make up Paganism today. It shows what they have in common and what makes each one unique. It suggests the ways in which Paganism differs from other religious traditions and what it has especially to offer the modern world. It also addresses the question of its relationship with ancient paganism.
