This review is from: The Truth About Neo-Paganism (Paperback)

This is a good guide for those family & friends that have no idea, what your beliefs are or about. I let my mother read this and it helped clear up alot of misunderstandings for her. I had thought about Letting her read the book by Scott Cunningham. But the chapters on skyclad & sexuality would be to much for her, and this one left those subjects out.

1.0 out of 5 stars More enthusiasm than scholarship, February 1, 2002

This review is from: The Truth About Neo-Paganism (Paperback)

The author lumps several un-related spiritual paths incorrectly under the "Neo-Pagan" umbrella.

"Neo-Pagan" refers to a group of revival-religions, and specifically does NOT include such religions as Hinduism & Budhism, which far pre-date Christianity. (These religions might legitimately be called Pagan. They cannot be called Neo-Pagan.)

One seeking information on this subject would be far better to read Margot Adler's work (which the author references on page 2).
