5. They Don’t See Jesus Christ as the God
Pagans do not venerate Jesus Christ, they see a good man in his person who tried to help others and change the world, but they don’t see a God, anyway they don’t hate him. They consider he was one of the gods but don’t give him the importance that Christians do.
4. Pagan’s Are Not Evil
To be a pagan does not mean necessarily to be evil, it’s not like that at all. Pagans don’t worship the Devil, they are not Satanists. They agree to all religions at once, or none at all, they are free thinkers.

feriseeker: Kabbalah is not pagan, and, not all pagans revere nature. Neopaganism does not equal Wicca.
