Since politically correct Christmas toons seem to go over well here, I figured what the heck...

All ancient religions are Pagan. They were practiced on every continent and in very present country. Every single ethnic group, every culture culture, and all of your ancestors from that time period pretty much lived in a society that practiced some sort of Pagan religion. The greatest early examples of civilization prospered as Pagans before they found Christianity (if they did). It wasn't anti-Christian or anything then...it was before all that.

Examples:
Romans (who, before their conversion, ruled almost all of Europe and parts of Africa and Asia at their highest point, and who still hold the strongest part of the earliest Christian practices)
Celtics (from around the present UK)
Greeks
Mesopotamians
Egyptians
all Asian and Africans countries
all Native Americans, North and South...
They all had festivals or some type of holiday associated with the changing seasons, moon phases, and the harvest (all parts of nature). It is not a coincidence that many Christian holidays just happen to fall around these dates...it was already the custom to celebrate then.

I am not trying to prove that it is a superior religion or anything like that. I'm not a practicing Pagan. Just letting you know it wasn't some strange phenomenon found in a seperated part of unintelligent weirdos.
