Rosie, To get to the truth, you need to read Hutton [Triumph of the Moon], Wilby [Cunning Folk and Familiar Spirits], and Davies [Popular Magic - Cunning-Folk in English History]. I should warn you that they are all British Academics and the books are not exactly light reading.

I am used to "heavy" reading, norseman, although academic works understandably sometimes come with "heavy" price tags! I even love the name, "Cunning Folk", and will look for the books. Thank you for the recommendations!

I grew up in the South and there are still pockets in the state of Florida who are intolerance and don't like people who don't follow their particular brand of religion or outlook on life.
The fact is when you go outside the South or to other parts of the world, they aren't going to have the same world view as you and these people find this difficult to understand. This is why we have problems dealing with Europe and other countries. It wasn't this way 30 or 20 years ago but this is getting worse.
Wiccans are people that these groups of people harass. Several years ago someone made a fuss about some Wiccans in Brevard County Florida who had religious ceremony/meeting in their back yard. They made such a fuss that police were forced to investigate the group and found nothing.
I'm not a Wiccan but my family has been harassed because our religious beliefs were different. Someone showed up where my mom worked and attacked our religious beliefs. This was back in the 1980's.

That's sad, baronesslucy. My history teacher in High School grew up in Florida. His family was Catholic, and the Klu Klux Klan burned a cross on their lawn. Apparently, being Catholic was their only "offense". Hopefully, one day we will all get past hateful, intolerant behavior of this type. Blessings, and the protection of God, who loves us all, to your family!

Yeah, when I came out of the broom closet I got a lot of hate. It's just pure ignorance, nothing to fear unless they actually attempt to harm you.
