Looks like a failure of relinquishment to me. Are there any naturalistic neopagans who are not former non-naturalistic neopagans?

I don't see where you're coming from — the essay I linked seems to make it extremely clear that its author was never a non-naturalist.

Ah, got the wrong end of the stick from a skim read - thanks!

I think I would fall in that description. I see (and have always seen) my neopaganism as a philosophical expression of humor and absurdism.

Yes, many. Indeed, there are naturalistic neopagans who were not formerly neopagans at all, of any sort.
