OT: narf, Pooh Star says you were more right than I was
 

Pooh Star says that Pagan is a cathall for lots of diverse belief systms and not all of them follow the wheel of the year or the seasons.

True enough. Pagan is about as descriptive and specific as saying christian. Both Groups tend to argue about who is and isnt included, or what the guidelines are for deciding it.

From the trusted dictionary:

Pagan
One who is not a Christian, Muslim, or Jew, especially a worshiper of a polytheistic religion.
1. One who has no religion.
2. A non-Christian.
3. A hedonist.
4. A Neo-Pagan.

Neo-Paganism
Any of various religious movements arising chiefly in the United Kingdom and the United States in the late 20th century that combine worship of pagan nature deities, particularly of the earth, with benign witchcraft.
