Modern Paganism, which arose in the middle of the last century, has been called the fastest growing religious movement in the world. Paganism encompasses many branches, paths and tradition including traditional and eclectic Wicca, Asatru/Heathenism, Druidry, Pagan reconstructionists, Discordianism, Thelema and countless others.
This year’s Pagan Pride Day is sponsored by Athens Area Pagans, an organization dedicated to facilitating communication, networking and connectivity within all parts of the Pagan community in and near Athens
