To the members of the three desert religions, Judaism, Christianity and Islam, a pagan is anybody who does not belong to any of their three religions.
They feel that their religions are superior because they are mono-theistic (only one God), which - according to them - is the highest and only true form of religion.
Just as an anecdote: Muslims often say that Christianity is not mono-theistic, because of the belief in the Holy Trinity (One God in three persons).

Better say someone who follows the old, Earth-centered religions, old rituals. They are also known as country dwellers.
