I would say that many Pagans do believe in pantheism (for those that don't know it is the belief that there is no personified or anthropomorphic god, instead god could be referred to as a force or "mother nature" as a natural process http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantheism ). Some Pagans might worship individual gods but as a way of focusing their beliefs rather than that they believe in that particular anthropomorphised figure - and I fit into this category. But equally many would probably say that they do believe in specific gods, or at least specific personified beings. Wicca has a slightly different meaning in the UK I feel to that of US. In the latter (and please do correct me if I am wrong) Wicca seems to refer more generally to Paganism, where as in the UK as I understand it its a little more specific and does seem to relate to particular personified conceptions of gods and goddesses.
