As an emergent religion, Paganism in America (and Europe, for that matter) is growing rapidly, but as it has no central text, central authority, or even a commonly accepted set of beliefs there is always the fear that it will somehow die out.

That being said, interest in the religion has exploded, and without any evangelism on our part it is doubling in size every 18 months, according to some stats. Where will Paganism be in 5 years? 10? 20? And what will it look like?

If you aren't Pagan and want to respond, please do; but don't expect a civil answer if your only response is "to hell!" I'm looking for a social/cultural slant here, not pyrotechnic theology.

To heck(we can't use "hell" unless it is the literal meaning on this board)!

j/k

I think it's going to end up like Christianity now: full of hypocritical morons.
