I remember one girl saying it was tantamount to paganism but the reception she got suggested the room didn’t agree with her.

"Paganism" carries a lot of political and theological baggage, particularly among Christian Evangelicals, such that calling something "pagan" can be seen as derogatory rather than explanatory.

I was not aware of that. Things are different where I live. Pagan has no real negative connotation here. In the land of Druids and the Eisteddfod anyone claiming paganism would be ok; plus Christian Evangelicalism ain’t really a thing over here.
