christianity is obviously superior to all those mystery religions, and the old roman religion, christianity never imitated those religions, it is just nitpicking by the enemies of the religion that can be easily disregarded.
they have the traditions of the apostles, the metaphysics of whatever was around at the time and that and the law of the prophets and the christ, and over the time the church plays its role as the religious authority by explaining it to the believers.
to compare a "fabricated state religion" to wicca is just complete nonsense, at least bring an actual fabricated state religion like islam as a comparison
christianity as a cultural force reverses cultural decline and brings cultural progress. it thrives in the enviroments that the inferior relgions and cultural systems caused degeneracy in, overtakes it, and puts the christian order in place, which is the most excellent societal order, that is the root of european excellence. buddhism could only create something similar to it, that just is not as good as it.
