Although not widely accepted, I do feel that the craft is the decendent of the ancient mystery systems, and there is great evidence of this especially on the esoteric level within the craft.

I think that the remnants of these systems eventually spread across the world becoming modern religions and being diluted by that process.
Email me at [email protected] and we can discuss some of these esoteric things.
