I guess as the new editor to the Pagan site I should throw my answer into the mix. I am an eclectic Pagan, and no, Wicca and Paganism aren't the same thing. Like Jase said, Wiccans are Pagans but not all Pagans are Wiccan.
I belong to a local druid grove that is part of the larger organization, �r nDra�ocht F�in (or ADF for short). Roughly translated it means, our own druidry. However, I also have my own personal practice which draws upon reconstructionism, ceremonial magick, chaos magick, Wicca, and hedge witchcraft. So, as you can see I draw upon many sources for my practice.
I've been a Pagan close to 20 years and before I knew that is what I would be calling myself, I was already questioning the information being presented to me.
Wiccans are definitely welcome in this forum as well as those of other faiths. I'm glad to have the opportunity to meet so many people with differing views here even if it is in the virtual world.;)
