I'm _not_ a Wiccan, but to characterize them as "devil worshippers" is wrong. Wiccan beliefs do not equal Satanic beliefs. Here's the Webster's dictionary definition of Wicca: "witchcraft, esp. benevolent, nature-oriented practices derived from pre-Christian religions." If someone tells you they are a Wiccan and that they worship Satan/the devil, then they are not a Wiccan.
There are quite a few Wiccans among RPG-ers, and just like any other "group," they are some whom I'd rather not game with and others who could game at my table any day of the week.
YMMV
