This sentence makes absolutely no sense.

Obviously, 68.19.207.51 is offended by the use of the word 'pagan' to refer to one who practices idolatry, but it doesn't change the fact that it is used that way. I'm changing the sentence.

I took "An atheist" off because the definition of atheism is one who disbelieves the existence of a deity. I was unable to find a single dictionary reference that supported the paganism/atheist link, nor have I ever heard it used that way. -Mixvio 04:04, August 17, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism

I took out the following:

  • one who wears no underwear (not including katie or hunter)
  • one who believes that trees have spirits
  • one who practices a form of worship which skeeves you out
  • one who chants about their food
  • one who makes sacrifices (lent and ramadan not included)
  • one who participates in ritualistic leaf-waving

because it has no place in a disambiguation article. Unless maybe on Uncyclopedia. Lokicarbis 05:48, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] removals

I took out these two entries (after removing wikilinks):

  • Pagan - Bulgarian khan(767-768)
  • One who follows a religion of European, North African, West Asian or Pre-Columbian American origin and who is not Christian, Muslim nor Jewish, or who does not worship the God of Abraham. Such usage, while traditional in the above three religions, may be considered derogatory. (Religions of Southern and Eastern Asian origin (eg. Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Shinto) are not generally considered to be Pagan)

Maybe each of these uses needs an article of it's own, but since such articles don't seem to exist, I'm not sure how we can justify having them on this page. Tedernst 18:04, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

There's nothing wrong with having entries for articles that do no yet exist, at least the reader will have some information that way. I think the Bulgarian khan should be put back Fornadan (t) 04:07, 9 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Black Christmas Tree

I made a black tree chair cover and was told I had a Pagan Tree. At first, I thought evil and anti christ like. I looked the word up and then realized it just means different from the standard. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.248.28.49 (talk) 17:02, 11 December 2006 (UTC).
