i agree, if i see one more trendy twit insisting that the wicca is an ancient craft of the wise, while whining how horrible christians are, i fear i may lose the breakfast, i haven't had yet.

dyshade may have been kind, questioning your statement, but personally i'm curious how you have garnered such wisdom from a neopagan religion that was morphed from other heathen practices, licensed and sent out with a price tag?

...unless you've personally sacrificed humans, slaughtered your enemy and understand the subtle reasons why a warrior nature enjoyed bravado and bloodshed as much as they enjoyed bravado and drinking, i don't think you have earned any right to decide what's a more "real" religion than another one, especially holding it up against neo pagan religions like much of the occult and other ancient cultures, romanticized by a scant offering of archeological discoveries, that were destroyed; before gardner was a glimmer in the occult world's eye.

witchcraft ying and yang? that's almost as funny as "searching for witchcraft in credible places"; at least you got the nature part right.

don't confuse wicca and witchcraft, i may no longer prescribe to practicing witchery, but witchcraft is too grand of scope to restrict it within the confines of just another organized religion, and that's all wicca is...actually it's no different than catholicism, except that roman catholicism is really so much older in it's establishment.

both have a form of priest, both have rite and ritual, both pray before idols to grant requests and both are subject to the poor examples set by those who follow them while insisting they are the one true and right religion for everyone.
