Without any use of either
A. Some rendition of "because Christianity is here now"
or
B. "Because we're right and you're wrong"
Explain to me why the various flavors of European paganism was wrong for their respective societies.

I am a practicing Christian, I'm wondering if secularly, there's anything wrong with them.

Feel free to get into the details, but if it say addresses a particular aspect of Celtic heathenry not present in Hellenic, the Hellenic remains untouched.

Nothing inherently, but Christianity made a big deal about how all followers were Brothers in Christ, while the pagan religions did not have the same idea of unity between followers (who would often have local deities or deified ancestors making divides between local or familial groups). Christian leaders/clergy also did a good job of maintaining the local administration and caring for the poor when the late Roman aristocracy and wealthy either holed up or fled during the fall the Empire-- although by that time there weren't many openly practicing pagan clergy, so we can't really say that the pre-Christian leaders wouldn't have done the same if they maintained power in Rome

I don't think there's anything 'wrong' about them, they converted because the great powers to the south and east where dickbags who'd either conquer or refuse to associate with you if you didn't sign up.
