Now Wicca is actually what people call Neo-Paganism as it was crafted by Gerald Brousseau Gardner on 1950 and have it's roots on Freemasonry, Rosicrucian and Aleister Crowley Satanism (which are not Pagan).

that's exactly what im saying, if you generalize all paganism to the greek culture you WILL fill your bubble with ppl that claim to be pagan and are completely disrupt from your paganism, even if they are or not pagan

Just for the record I don't consider Wicca as Paganism because it emerged on the 50's with it's roots as a mix of Hermeticism (Pagan), Masonry, Jewish and Christian (not Pagan) influences.

People use the term Neo-Paganism derogatory I think it fits well for Wicca only.
