Default Did you ever see the similarities between Shinto and Wiccan? Why do you think that is

Is it just that there is a need for a nature religion for people to follow and a need for a polytheistic religion for some people to follow and a need for a monotheistic god incarnate religion for some to follow,

if we could travel to the future, say 5000 years, will we see the various religions of our century there in a different label but same,

one or two nature religions,
one or two god incarnate religion,
one or two polytheistic religions,

or will Jim_darwinism rule them all (JFK)

5000 years into the future we'll all be dead. Plus, the English Dialect would have been bastardized even more, so, we wouldn't understand them.

So many questions today. Do you read the answers to them all? I like to check your Q's and A's everyday now. Isn't that weird? You must be growing on me.
You must do a lot of research.

Wicca and Shinto have precious little in common. Shinto is the ancient Japanese tribal animistic religion, with origins lost in time. Wicca, on the other hand, is a modern religion created by Britain Gerald Gardner, and the materials upon which it is generally based don't predate the Medieval period.
