Theoretical Models Of Paganism

Theoretical Models Of Paganism
I was wondering if Heelas and Woodhead's four categories of congregational religion were superior for musing about Pagan and connected traditions too.

A few voudouisants stress the power of the "loa" and the family member inability of humans - may possibly this be an appearance of a religion of difference? And later it really focusses on antic of the "loa" in residence, may possibly that be an appearance of a religion of practical difference? Heaps Pagans speak of private opt for by a deity (and having terse first-class about which deity picked them) - this overly seems to stress the family member inability of humans in the edge of divine prerogatives.

A few reconstructionists stress the identity of deities to thoughtfulness, do not practice magic, and stress the perception of tradition - may possibly this be an appearance of a religion of humanity?

Heaps other Pagans stress the perception of inner antic and renovate rareness - may possibly this be an appearance of a religion of practical humanity?
