Wicca is a new movement (shism) and a direct backlash toward christianity.
BOOYAH.
As opposed to most of early Christianity's beliefs being a mockery of Wiccans? (Devil has horns, the term Pagan most closely translates to "Hick",...)
The reason Jesus wasn't recorded by the Romans is because he wasn't important to the Romans. He was a reformer/challenger of the Jewish religion. The Jewish historian of the time does record him. But Rome would care about one more upset Jew. There were THOUSANDS of them.
RE: The devil and horns and all that shit --
Do you know how the term "scapegoat" came to be?
In days of long ago on the Day of Atonement, the high priest (this is Judaism, not christianity) would bring a goat into the temple, place his hands on it's head, and confess the people's sins, transferring guilt to the guiltless beast, which was then led to the wilderness and abandoned... the people's sins and blame vanishing with the goat in the wilderness.
Ever notice how the Satan guy usually has a head and horns of a goat... he also usually has hooves, too. The mythic Greek God Pan of the woods and fertility morphed into Satan/The Devil by the christian propaganda-ists.
oh, and it was believed that Jebus was an Essene. Essenes were a reform group of Judaism. Jesus may have existed, but he did not walk on water, he did not feed 5000 people with one fish at a wedding and he did not rise from the dead and he was not born on the 25th of December. The story is a solar allegory or astrotheology. THE BIG YELLOW ONE'S THE SUN.
There was a time when people worshipped Zeus, too.... there was a time when people doubted Zeus and ridiculed him as well. It is believed that Zeus turned into the vengeful biblical god of our culture today.
