	Neopaganism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hutton states that the historical Pagans did not see "All Goddesses as one Goddess; all Gods as one God", but some modern Neopagans believe that there is but a single divinity or life force of the universe, which is immanent in the world.
		Historical paganism, particularly in the Mediterranean, tended to regard beliefs as valid as long as they conformed to the traditions and customs, or cultural patrimony of the people.
		The main distinction between the branches is between reconstructionism, the attempt to base a modern approach to paganism on a particular historical culture, and syncretic or eclectic approaches that may adopt various historical influences, but synthesize them into a personalized religion.
