Pagan is a word describing a religion, not a religion itself. However, "Pagans" don't realize this and go on to claim things that have all the individualism of saying "I'm polytheistic."

Pagans believe that the Earth is alive in the form of a God and Goddess. They can trace their religion's roots back to their ancestors in the 1960s, who basically made up a load of shit about what they imagined druids to be like then called themselves pagans. In a way, they were an early form of otherkin. They also believe it's their godgiven right to be complete assholes, rivaling vegans and 90% of atheists for levels of sheer douchebaggery.

Beliefs

According to their religion, each year is a cycle. The God dies on a date known as Samhain (pronounced "Dan-Zig") which is coincidentally (?) around Halloween. He is reborn again each year on a date known as Yule which, coincidentally (?), is around Christmas. If you mention any of these coincidences to a Pagan, they will cast a voodoo curse on you, so watch out!

There's a simple explanation for that, which too many idiotic 4chaners are too lazy to go find out for themselves.

There are other holidays that tell the story of the God and the Goddess, but they are far too boring to write about. These are the basics of the mythology of the circle of life that fuels the many branches of Paganism. That, and copious amounts of Disney — which explains why the Baptists have boycotted them.

People who believe they are Pagan for the purpose of attention-whoring usually have a hyper-inflated superiority complex, especially if they are protected by the unbreakable barrier of a computer screen and thousands of miles. They believe they are more sensitive to beings of the next dimension (particularly ghosts and demons), and frequently say things like "I'm feeling a strange aura from that side of the room.", if they haven't been getting enough attention in a conversation. They will make gullible people shiver and shake, despite the person being told there's something there knowing that there is nothing there.

Wicca: Pagan Light with Cherry

Like goths, but eco-friendly and politically correct, Wicca is something taken up by fat 16 year old girls so they can call themselves witches because they think it'll freak people out(though it is their immense size and ugliness that actually freaks people out). Many guys claim to respect this, but this is because they are neckbeards with no hope of ever getting sex from anyone else ever.

On LJ, Wiccans are represented by wiccan, moderated by the always rational Silvertree. Wicca attracts many morbidly obese girls and women because of their slimming dark-colored robes and their hatred of men, leading to lots of awkward lesbian sex in the name of "celebrating the sacred feminine".

It is also well known that Wiccans like to form smaller groups that they like to call covens. These smaller groups tend to meet on full moons, half moons, and new moons, but not on on blue moons, because blue moons aren't real (just like their all religion!). On the occasion of new moons one member of the coven is nominated to bend over and show their moon, and every one else takes turns drawing down the moon with their wands.

Wiccans like to give themselves really clever and interesting names, such as Princess Snowdrop of the Divine Light of Ass Hats, Crystal Raven with a chance of Light Scattered Showers, and Part-lee sunny outside. A lot of the time these names are simply taken from the first two to three things they see after dropping a tab of LSD.

Wiccans also love to sacrifice virgins to the Horned God. In fact, if you live in a small town that has a coven in it, you might as well forget your dreams of ever getting any virgin pussy. (This is true even if you live in a town with no Wiccans in it, because all women are sluts.)

Lastly, Wiccans do indeed worship Satan, but they do this behind closed doors. If you accuse Wiccans of worshiping Satan, they will flip the fuck out because you've discovered their little secret.

Neo-Paganism

Essentially, Neo-Paganism combines all of the most nerdy elements of classical (and mutually antagonistic) European and Middle Eastern pagan pantheons, while leaving out most of the cool stuff like human and animal sacrifice so that 30-year-old basement dwellers can secretly take up witchcraft without too many of their secular or Judeo-Christian peers batting an eyelash. In reality, they practice Wicca in order to fuck 16-year-old girls (see above).

Most Neo-Pagans are goths who never grew out of gothdom, work shitty service-sector jobs, deem themselves "intellectuals," and sit around playing D&D while whacked out of their skulls on whatever's at hand. Pagans like Hrafnagardh and Weofodthignen, who like to wear horned helmets and pretend to be vikings, are called "Asatruar", which is an ancient Norse word for "white supremacists".

Stag Circle

SUMMON MOAR MORNING WOOD!
SUMMON MOAR MORNING WOOD!

Even more Occulticly than regular pagans are the Dolmen Grove. Proud, baby-eating Satanists who wear those retarded Snuggie blankets and raise their arms in the general direction of the sun, and take authoritative stances on issues that nobody cares about. Most recently have sent an open letter to Extreme-Islamic Hate Preacher Dr Rowan Williams, exclaiming their disgust at the suggestion of integrating elements of Religious Law into British Law, but tragically falling short of demanding the repeal of all British laws which have elements of Religious inspiration therein.

Unlike Scientology, this lolicult offers its own indoctrinate-at-home, study courses at no monetary cost. The cost is of course at the expense of the recipient's dignity. There is no leader, but there is a lead-camwhore who is frequently seen wearing twigs on his head to summon even greater morning wood. See The Dolmen article for moar!

IN UR STONEHENGE CALLIN' UP SPIRITS!
IN UR STONEHENGE CALLIN' UP SPIRITS!

This beautiful, life-affirming narrative seems to attract cutters and angsty teens the world over. Like atheists, pagans are pissed off at the STUPID XTIANS who made fun of them in high school, so they're looking to reject the establishment like the hardcore rebels they are. Unlike atheists, though, pagans are secretly too afraid that Jehovah might actually exist to totally give him the finger, so they put him in a dress and call him "The Goddess", hoping that if that whole Jesus thing is actually true they might get a pass into Heaven anyway because hey, at least they worshiped something. Because of this, most pagans behave exactly like Christians, except for not knowing when to keep their damn clothes on, substituting a spiritual relationship with Christ for virulent sexual relationships with each other.

Like Cosmic Jew-Zombie worshipers, they come in a variety of flavors that most people fail to recognize. This causes much butt-hurt, and they will then rant and rave about the minuscule differences that make them all such unique individuals. And of course, none of these idiots realize that "Pagan" is not actually a religion, but an adjective describing religions with cool gods like the Greeks and Egyptians had.

If you encounter pagans on the Internet, you may think that they are all batshit insane. This is not entirely true, since at least 50% of pagans on the Internet are actually Son of Art. This gives the community a worse reputation than it would have otherwise.

The LJ community: pagan

According to Google, this is what a pagan looks like. Sickly little fellow, ain't he?

Practices

A little-known fact is that pagans were actually the first furries. Animal sacrifices are also common among pagans who skin the animal while it's still alive and grind it's horns to make penis-enlargement potions.

When not listening to the bleats of a dying goat, pagan make potions out of wild plants that can make people fall in love, tell the truth or run around naked with their genitals flapping in the wind (thus associating them with bakedfurs).

Because of their strong belief with the cycle of the year, pagans - like most angsty teens - are obsessed with sex. Teen pregnancy is simply not an issue for them. Despite their best effort to breed like their rabbit gods, pagans are still relatively rare IRL because today no person in their right mind would want to pay taxes for some little whore who thinks getting high and letting her dog to things to her pussy is part of her spirituality.

Because at the end of the day they are all animal-fucking doped-up cannibals, pagans have often been mistaken for Satanists. Although "mistaken" is not quite the correct word as they are exactly the fucking same anyways.

The Media

Da Vinci Code Due to the fact that there are at least 100 documentaries about every element of Dan Brown's exciting new book, there are now many documentaries made about Paganism. These feature just over an hour of big men fucking animals with commentary from recognized researchers about how we are all the same as the Pagans.


The Wicker Man The Wicker man was originally a win British horror movie accurately depicting the lives of real pagans - a Christian is brought to their island and after much mind-fucking is eventually burned alive by Christopher Lee. Oddly this caused more outrage amongst pseudo-witches than actual Christians. The Wicker Man was eventually re-made with Nicholas Cage, and was deemed a pile of shit by everyone.

Real Pagans

Though 99.99999% of pagans are whiny fags who like to pretend what they believe matters, they are people who really believe this shit. Unfortunately, noone has ever met one, as they actually have a fucking clue, and know that real pagans get firebombed by Christfags. They also know that religion is shit nobody cares about, making them smarter than a lump of shit.
