Secular paganism

Secular paganism, alternately called naturalistic paganism or humanistic paganism, is an outlook upholding virtues and principles associated with paganism while maintaining a secular worldview. Approaches to secular paganism vary, but typically include the respect for living creatures and the Earth itself, while rejecting belief in deities. Secular pagans may recognize goddesses/gods as useful metaphors for different cycles of life, or reframe magic as a purely psychological practice. The specific path of atheopaganism developed in the twenty-first century.
