Pagan (noun) late 14c., from Late Latin paganus "pagan," in classical Latin "villager, rustic; civilian, non-combatant", from pagus "country people; province, rural district," originally "district limited by markers," thus related to pangere "to fix, fasten," from PIE root *pag- "to fix" (see pact). The religion of rural districts was outside of central government control, and therefore self-organising and independent. When the official religion of the Empire became Christianity, it was these rural communities which continued to practice their rustic religion. Christianity was very much an urban religion as it spread through the cities, and so the country folk were typically slow to pick up the new religion. The term pagan became synonymous with unbeliever, infidel and heretic, to the point that it was used as an insult. In the modern era, the term was first embraced by pantheists and nature-worshippers from 1908.

This section of the documentary talks about the pagan symbolism which connects virtually all the religions to each other through their astrological symbolism personified as deities or "saviors" most recently Jesus Christ. Religion also serves as the base for taking authority as the truth, rather truth as their authority which is why most people deny to even listen to "conspiracy" theories, let alone research.

( GIC Production ) Witchcraft is a pagan religion. Pagan religions worship multiple deities rather than a single god. Paganism is one of the oldest religions and includes all religions that are not Christian, Muslim or Jewish, meaning Paganism includes the Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist, Confucian and American Indian religions as well as all other nature-oriented religions. According to the 1998 Cambridge Fact Finder,Paganism accounts for 50 percent of all religions. The word "Pagan" actually stems from the Latin Pagini or Paganus, words meaning "hearth" or "home dweller" or, more simply, "country person" -- those labeled as Pagans were considered inferior to those living in cities. It didn't, however, mean those people were "bad." It wasn't until the 1450s that fear of witchcraft became more prevalent, and people began associating witchcraft and paganism with devil worship, evil hexes and spells. Today we share an in depth look at these often misunderstood spiritual practices.

Please like our facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/OathBoundSecrets ★ The quotes that I am reading in this video are from the British Museum, London, as are the photos shown, which I took on a recent visit. ★ Quote from Wikipedia: Paganism (from Latin paganus, meaning "country dweller", "rustic") is a blanket term, typically used to refer to religious traditions which are polytheistic or indigenous. It is primarily used in a historical context, referring to Greco-Roman polytheism as well as the polytheistic traditions of Europe and North Africa before Christianization. In a wider sense, extended to contemporary religions, it includes most of the Eastern religions and the indigenous traditions of the Americas, Central Asia, Australia and Africa; as well as non-Abrahamic folk religion in general. More narrow definitions will not include any of the world religions and restrict the term to local or rural currents not organized as civil religions. Characteristic of Pagan traditions is the absence of proselytism and the presence of a living mythology, which informs religious practice. Ethnologists often avoid the term "paganism," with its uncertain and varied meanings, in referring to traditional or historic faiths, preferring more precise categories such as polytheism, shamanism, pantheism, or animism. In the late 20th century, "Paganism", or "Neopaganism", became widely used in reference to adherents of various New Religious Movements including Wicca. As such, various modern scholars have begun to apply the term to three groups of separate faiths: Historical Polytheism (such as Celtic polytheism, Norse Paganism, the Cultus Deorum Romanorum and Hellenic Polytheistic Reconstructionism also called Hellenismos), Folk/ethnic/Indigenous religions (such as Chinese folk religion and African traditional religion), and Neopaganism (such as Wicca and Germanic Neopaganism).

I was motivated by a few subscribers to upload a video about the observational , commonplace differences between the New Age movement and Pagan tradition. While I am not an advocate of limiting with labels, I figured this video might be helpful to see if those who were looking for paths that resonate with their personal priorities could see if this helped point out some spots on the "map" Contribute to this Month's Cause! http://www.collaborative-consciousnes...

Many consider paganism a dead religion that was practiced thousands of years ago. However, paganism’s ideas still affect us today. In this session, Dr. Peter Jones describes how paganism continues to be a force in today’s culture. He points out places where pagan thought affects the world’s way of thinking, and he describes how Christians can guard against that influence. He also explains ways that Christians can renew their minds and live as children of God among a twisted generation.
