No, that wasn't the part I was disagreeing with.  You then went on to say,
however, "but the people of power of pagan persuasion who *are*
involved, are far more likely to be of the modern pagan variety."  Unless
you meant by "people of power," people of /magical/ power, in which case I
tentatively agree with you.
