#like celtic paganism is much more loose and less defined. and is still not comparable to wicca
Text
I am absolutely begging y'all to realize that "celtic" and "gaelic" are not interchangeable terms
#especially in terms of paganism and culture. wicca has massively fucked that too#but then at the same time a lot of y'all use paganism and wicca interchangeably too#i am once again asking people with minimal occult knowledge and/or christian / former christian now atheist upbringings to please just#don't. just don't okay unless you've actually spent time researching anything in relation to paganism please don't speak on it i'm so tired#like i would still consider myself to be in the introductory stages of gaelic paganism but that's after like#two years of cultural and religious research. so i'm not speaking as someone who thinks they're an expert in these fields#but you know what makes that research harder?#having to sift through every celtic or wiccan thing mislabeled ''gaelic paganism'' like they are not synonymous#i am not wiccan. my form of paganism falls under the greater umbrella of celtic culture#but celtic paganism is the equivalent of ''christianity''#christianity includes hundreds of sects including catholicism‚ mormonism‚ protestants‚ quakers‚ fundamentalists... the list goes on#like celtic paganism is much more loose and less defined. and is still not comparable to wicca#wicca is honestly Religious Appropriation‚ The Religion. it bastardizes celtic‚ germanic‚ greek‚ and roman paganisms#along with taking from major religions like judaism‚ hinduism‚ buddhism‚ islam‚ and even christianity!#it is NOT comparable to paganism. it is NOT one in the same.#just. god i'm so tired of this kind of shit i really wish someone would write a guide for all this shit#'cause i know it's not out of malicious intent but when you call someone that's desperately trying to recover their culture#from violent protestantism and its offshoots along with decades of active genocide by the english a ''wiccan'' and use it interchangably#with ''gaelic paganism'' it's like. it's like saying the irish and the english are the same thing like. that's insulting.#i know it's not on purpose but it's still insulting.#okay i'm done rambling in the tags sorry i'm tired
