I was poking around the BBC's homepage and saw a history link and found out they have a neat section on ancient history. I decided to see what would happen if I looked up "witch" and "pagan" in their search bar. On American news sources this brings up very little and usually silly stuff, but on the BBC... I am impressed with what I've read. I post some links.
The starting page for Paganism (with easy link back to religions)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/paganism/ Paganism at a glance
http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/paganism/ataglance/glance.shtml Wicca as opposed to Heathenry (verbally an arguable semantic choice, but it's actually a very good real distinction between two major Pagan types)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/paganism/subdivisions/wicca.shtmlhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/paganism/subdivisions/heathenry_1.shtml And I think this article is awesome.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/paganism/subdivisions/teenwitches.shtmlThat's what you had to do church, anything other than damn people. Now was that so hard?
I haven't read through it thoroughly yet, but everything I've read has made as reasonable distinctions as almost anything I've ever seen, and certainly more succinctly. Most anyone seeing this will either know all this stuff already, or not care, but I thought I'd share my geeky excitement.
Please note my mood. It would have read "Suddenly more awake than I want to be at 12:48 at night" but it wouldn't fit.
