Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

This is new info to me, so not sure who else, but Paganism isn't a single system. It's anything the Christians were trying to erase in Europe. The wildly varying descriptions occur because it was just the negative terms applied to any other group. Going to church is a ritual. Consuming eucharist is a ritual. Priests are channels to their god. Hyms are chants. Prayers are incantations. All just negative terms applied to the out groups.
So warlocks and clerics are just made up distinctions of the same thing? /j
Different spell lists, but yeah basically
