people had no problem converting to Christianity, because it was a definite
step up and away from those very brutal practices.  The idea of the
peaceful,
matriarchic nature religions is a whimsy.  The studies of the people that
practiced these religions, through contemporary accounts and modern
archeology show that these groups practiced human sacrifice and blood soaked
ceremonies(Norse, specifically, have accounts of ceremonial rape and live
burials).  Even the Malleus Maleficarum advises that witches are in an
individual relationship with devils, and not part of some vast underground
group.
