Pagan-Christian - my aunt and I were talking about this on the phone last night

My Aunt brought up about people calling and knocking on doors if you are Christian. She then said tell them you are Pagan if you want to see a true reaction from them. I told her back no tell them you are Pagan Christian it will really blow their mind since Christianity took so much from Pagan beliefs in order to appeal to the people of that area. They stole a lot of Pagan ideas and then tried to post them under a new name of Christianity. Then let them know you truly do believe the Bible has a lot of good philosophy and you truly do like the man named Jesus teaching as man.

It truly is interesting how much the religion of Christianity took from Pagan ideas.

That'll freak them out.

There is good stuff in the Bible, but the statement that Jesus is the only way being the main tenet of Christianity sort of makes Christianity and Paganism mutually exclusive.
