eh... enlightening pagans about Christianity. You won't see me elsewhere in this forum btw.
Two things....
1st, this is "atheistforums.org"
B. Let's play the True Pagan™ game, I'll go first.
Human sacrifice is a pagan practice which is not condoned in the Bible. Is a person who participates in the act or benefits from the act a pagan? I say yes...
I think you should brush-up on your "pagan history". [Human sacrifice] (aka murder) wasn't a universal trait of "country dwellers"....at least not in the true sense of the term.
Plus... your motives are as bright as day here. I don't believe any of the following definition applies to Jesus?
pa·gan
noun \ˈpā-gən\
Definition of PAGAN
1
: heathen 1; especially : a follower of a polytheistic religion (as in ancient Rome)
2
: one who has little or no religion and who delights in sensual pleasures and material goods : an irreligious or hedonistic person
3
: neo-pagan
I have an atheist coworker who says money is his god.....so, "pagan" sounds more and more like an atheist to me! Especially given the many directions he can move in the material gods of this world...and w/o a religion to hinder him!
And...if you're feeling violently pagan, and/or hungry you could ceremoniously chase a small hen around as a sacrifice? That'll also get you off the couch and exercising, instead of playing those pagan video games! win/win!
Quis ut Deus?
