Neopagan

A person who follows a religion that is reconstructed from, or based upon, an ancient Pagan religion. For example:

  • the Druidic religion is based on the faith and practices of the ancient Celtic professional class
  • followers of Asatru adhere to the ancient, pre-Christian Norse religion
  • Wiccans trace their roots back to the pre-Christian era in Europe

No Neopagan tradition recognises an all-evil deity similar to the Christian and Islamic Satan. Neopagans respect other religions and the right of people to follow the faith of their choice.
