When I use the word "pagan", I am simply referring to the old style nature worship belief. To me, this word has no negative connotations whatsoever. I am married to a self proclaimed "pagan" who is very proud of his nature-centered belief system. I apologize for any misunderstandings regarding my use of this word. Hi John!
