I thought the inquisition had annihilated all of those.
Well, to be fair, Wicca has only been around for a few decades. It's often touted as "an ancient tradition" but that's only true insofar as its practices are based on/derived from an amalgamation of several pre-Christian nature-based polytheistic religions with a generous helping of celtic folklore on top.
And vikings are a dead people whose original beliefs and traditions have seen a recent resurgence, especially in people who are counted among the decedents of the original vikings.
But the people I hang out with use those terms, so I use them too in order to avoid confusion within the group.
