Sometimes these folks are referred to as New Agers. This is a misnomer as these religions are not at all new but far older than Buddhism and Christianity. Ironically, many of the so called NeoPagans have incorporated the Christ as divinity. Although their modern Christian counterparts refuse to acknowledge that Pagans are practicing a true faith, Pagans have a profound respect for other religions and never seek to convert , unlike their counterparts in spirituality. Pagans do not believe that their way is the only way, nor do they believe in blindly following like sheep.
Pagans seek to learn and learn they do dedicating their lives to study and practice of their faith.
Pagan roots extend to the darkest depths of both human consciousness and human history and are precursors to all modern religions which draw from the font of these ancient religions, emulating both their belief structures as well as most ritual work. C.J. Jung made an excellent observation in that, all humankind is connected by a Super Consciousness . It is that very Super Consciousness which connects all religions and makes them TRUE . S. Freud also hit on the reasons religions cannot remain spiritual, once organized . The I , the profound ME that seeks control at any cost, that has been the precursor to the downfall of many a church and the bane of most organized religions.
