I'm sorry if it's inaccurate or didactic with regards to Tao, like I said I don't know anything on the subject, so I'm definitely not going to argue that he was right! What he was saying did match my experiences with a Wiccan friend of mine's amazingly blase attitude to appropriating bits of other culture's religions (he once argued that american indian shamans refusing to share their rituals was elitist) but since all the other Wiccans I know disown him he's probably not indicative of their general attitudes either.
