From dictionary.com-
2 entries found for paganism.
pa?gan Audio pronunciation of "paganism" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pgn)
n.
1. One who is not a Christian, Muslim, or Jew, especially a worshiper of a polytheistic religion.
HAH!
sb, you should know by now that I'm always right.
Paleo-Paganism is Paganism, hence the "-Paganism" part.Tongue
Well, it's one form of paganism, the Paleo is there to distinguish it from other types of paganism, no?
"Paganism would suggest that we had some relationship with the Greeks and Romans in our beliefs but we didn't."
How so?

"Hinduism is a blanket term given to a varied schools of thought and practises. that does not necesarrily translate to multiple Gods as some believe. What it merely translate to is that its a term given to people who believe in certain basic elemental truths of life. That's all."
In this specific case I called someone a pagan after she posted a painting of four gods...
"Anyone who has actually studied the principles of hinduism and paganism can easily see that these two are not related AT ALL."
Paganism is a term, not an actual religion.

"They say that Jesus visited the Far East and studied Buddhism when he was in his early 20's"
...The hell?

"How did you know they were four GODS??????"
A hunch...


"Yes, really."
...Care to elaborate?

From wiki:
"Paganism (from Latin paganus, meaning "a country dweller" or "civilian") is a blanket term which has come to connote a broad set of western spiritual or religious beliefs and practices of natural or polytheistic religions, as opposed to the Abrahamic monotheistic religions"
So I reckon it's dictionary.com vs. Wiki-battle of the titans.
I don't really accept wiki's definition, because it'll go by what the hindus will tell them.(what's fair is fair)
Also from Wiki:"and soon the word for "country dweller" became synonymous with someone who was "not a Christian," giving rise to the modern meaning of "pagan."[1] In large part, this may have had to do with the conservative nature of rural people, who were more resistant to the new ideas of Christianity than those who lived in major urban centers."
...
How did this deteriorate into an actual discussion?Sad
"So what kind of a dumb statement is that : "because it'll go by what the hindus will tell them." Of course it would be defined by what the hindus tell them. Is christanity, Islam or Judaism being defined by a Buddhist???"
Just returning a favor, Scorps are known for that.

"Its not paganism. I don't care for the dictionary because they will go by what the church says. "
"Then lets talk about women in leather. Which looks hotter, blondes, brunettes or redheads?"
I like those with silky black hair.
...If you mix pasta and antipasti, will it like, explode or something?
You've read my mind.smile

^coolest flash ever? probably.
Do you prefer asians or blondes in leather, sb?
Anyway, I'm an atheist, I don't take this stuff seriously.
"No Yama. I saw what you were upto."
What was I up to?

"Before that they had clearly mentioned that was taking into consideration the western hemisphere and by no chance did they make any reference to anything on the eastern hemisphere. Most western concepts are heavily influenced by the Semitic religions. And most try to understand those that are of dissimilar concepts by what they can relate to and hence if paganism a concept is the nearest that they come to be, then it is easily clubbed into that sub group."
So, your problem is that I'm looking at hinduism from a non-hinduist point-of-view?
"Athiest are amusing, they seem to focus more on religion than people who are religious."
I don't know, I didn't attend the latest meetings.Tongue
"No, My problem is that you are looking at something without understanding it."
I think explaining it would be more productive the criticizing me.
Some facts about hinduism(http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Hinduism):In spite of common belief, the Hindus don't have that many Gods. Really, there are just five hundred main Gods and all other Gods can be seen as different aspects of them. Some of the Major Gods ruling each Cosmic principle are:
* Brahma , the principle of creation . Patron for all Hindus.
* Llama , the principle of maintainance. Patron for all Buddhists.
* Dingdong , the principle of confusion. Patron for all Hippies.
There also exist minor deities who are said to be partial reflections of the greater ones. Examples are:
* Siva , the god of destruction . Patron for all Serial Killers
* Smellkesh , the principle of being horrendously smelly at all times. "
"I just did yama. In the post before that."
I meant, explaining hinduism.
Never mind, I already got my info from uncyclopedia.
You are blonde enough to do the part. Schoen showed us her butt last night, so you can show us what you look like in leather.
^ I don't know what he's talking about! (((@_@)))

"yama is a 17 year old who thinks he's seen the world. and understands it better than most."

You sound prejudiced.
This one is funnier, methinks-
Alright, now for some actual Uncyclopedia stuff, because you specifically asked for it:
"The Judes were originally a nomadic tribe that lived with the original dinosaurs (they go way back). It was in a fateful battle with a Tyrannosaurus Rex (who was disputing a debt he owed them) that they were originally cast out of the Land of the Lost and had to wonder around the Middle East for 40 years. Being excellent bankers but terrible navigators, they decided not to just pick one direction and stick with it. Hence the lost Tribes of Israel never really un-losing themselves. It was not until they ran into their most revered prophet, Woody Allen that they truly found the Promised Land. Ironically, that land was all the way across the world in Los Angelese."
"The symbol of Judaism is a six-pointed throwing star, or David's Star, representing the sharp and penetrating wisdom of Moses, who was a ninja, trained in the Kobra Kai dojo. It was discovered when some commoner Jewish man was playing around with his triangles on the potty. After hours of doodling, and to his suprise, he had created some dimented triangle of some sort. The Jewish star, also known as David's Lee Roth's Star, was quite a popular shape for pasta in Germany during the second World War."
"How's that make me sound prejudiced. Care to explain?"
Ageism.Tongue
Oh, and just for the record you guys got it all wrong.
"Not really. My bro was very wise when he was 17. But atleast he admitted he hasn't seen anything yet. I did it too. I was pretty much like you at that age. Annoying."
Well, I never claimed I knew everything.
It must be the Capricorn influence.Tongue
