Default Should there be a mainstream doctrine for Wicca?

Why or Why not?
definition-
DOCTRINE; a belief (or system of beliefs) accepted as authoritative by some group or school.

It's a simple question, I'm not sure it could get more specific
Kithy- The question asks about a mainstream doctrine- not mainstream Wicca

I'm not sure what you mean. There are many different forms of Wicca and Paganism practiced all over the world. Could you be more specific?

Yeah, *something* of substance would be nice to hear from 'Wiccans'.

Something of substance.

Anything of substance.

Please?

Something?

They seem more like a bunch of mall rats tired of shopping.

beyond things such as karma, etc... which are metaphysical equivalents of gravity... what would such a thing offer that would be beneficial?

I'm not Wicca or pagan, but I have an idea of the general beliefs and such...

I think there is a mainstream doctrine for Wicca---but it is within the oath bound, line aged covens. One of the many reasons for lineage and oaths is to keep that doctrine undiluted and consistent.

What do you consider mainstream Wicca? Gardnerian? Dianic? Solitary certainly isn't mainstream, it's normally eclectic in nature. There are many different paths in Wicca. Different schools as well. Many of them do have their own doctrines. Some are very different as their belief systems are from different cultures.
