The term "paganism" covers a lot of different faiths and I can only speak for my particular tradition.
Yes, some Celtic paths are compatible with paganism. We do not have any knowledge of an ancient Celtic creation myth. Some of the possible reasons are that they did not have one or that it was lost. I don't see any contradictions between believing in evolution and Celtic mythology. I doubt that the ancient Celts believed in the concept of evolution but so far, scholars can't prove that they didn't believe in the concept. I'm open-minded.

The people who once followed the Pagan religions would not believe evolution, they wouldn't know about it. Pagans of all sects today should be open to evolution and everything in the scientific world, since Paganism is just re inventing a lost religions glory.
There are current religions today that are open to evolution, I follow one of them. Jewish, Muslim, and Christians have conflicts with everything and all things. Before you look for a Pagan party look to the east, early Hindu writing on creation are scientifically plausible to some degree.

Paganism can be compatible with the Evolution Theory. However, I don't know of any one sect that prescribes a good deal of it's beliefe to the Evolution Theory. Far as I Know, that would be more to the Eclectic groups and the Solitarys.

Pagan is a broad term.
I'd just reasearch all the different religions, I'm positive some have evolution mixed in. Sorry I can't be of more help. I know plenty of people who are pagan's and believe in evolution, though.

Paganism is Earth-based, so it clearly fits with evolution, which is also and Earth-based theory about the past, present and future life on Earth.

Only if you love nature and not the supernatural.
