I do believe that one similarity is the belief in reincarnation, other than that, I'm not sure.
Oh, and to the person who implied that Pagans are dirty and such, ignorance is not an excuse to put down a person's beliefs because you don't understand them or tried to understand/tolerate them! I'm Pagan and proud and not scared to say so!

Hinduism is a Pagan religion. There are many Pagan religions.
And BTW to Seraph: Way to go! Make the rest of us hate your bigoted religion even more than we do already. Thanks for perpetuating the stereotype, azzhole.

Yes, they both consist of worshiping several gods. The word pagan literally means someone who worships something other than the one true God.

Both have many, many gods.
Basically -- paganism alike to heathenism, and that was defined by the Catholics to be anything but Catholism. (Christianity)
Pagans now are thought to be more aggressively anti-monotheistic (one God) and thought to be dirtier and less hygenic, as well. =)
Heathenism -- anything but Christianity.
Hinduism -- not so sure...
