There isn't a pagan religion even though neo-pagans claim that they are pagan. Pagan is a term used for religions outside of your religion, it is relative to what the person using it believes. So to the early church, the Greek gods were just as pagan as the various gods of Europe.

paganism... the stupidity here when you kneel to a rock or something you've made by your hands .. something beautiful or ugly or look like an animal .. maybe pagan religion is coming back .. because human always need to obey something need to kneel to something .. thats the truth .. there's only one god who create all of the creation .. we know our god by our mind .. in our souls our feelings . we must go with the system of the universe .. i really don't believe in big bang .. you gotta stop and think of it .. someone did something to make the universe like this .

Not dead. Never was. Right now it is the fastest growing religous practice in America.

perverted system that ever shone on man....Rogueries, absurdities and untruths were perpetrated upon the teachings of Jesus by a large band of dupes and imposters led by Paul, the first great corrupter of the teaching of Jesus." --- Thomas Jefferson
“The son-ship of Jesus Christ is the greatest fiction of human history.” (Lord Bishop of Canterbury Commission, the Spiritual Head of England, 1910.)
“The son-ship of Jesus Christ, the Trinity, the blood sacrifice of the lamb of God, atonement are not the teachings of Jesus. These are all inventions of Saint Paul who never really met Jesus.” (Hastings Rashdall, The Theory of Good and Evil)
"Initially there were 34 gospels that were compiled by word of mouth. Four were chosen for unclear reasons and 30 were left behind [burned]. (Encyclopedia Britannica)
“There is strong reason to believe that St. Paul fabricated the belief system of Christianity from Zoroastrian mythology. In order to hide Paul’s plaigerism… Christians burned the library of Alexandria in 390 A.D. Books in that library kept Mithra’s original story of what Pauline Doctrine is an almost exact copy. (George Sarton , Introduction to History of Sciences) ,
Although Nontrinitarian beliefs continued to multiply, and among some people (such as the Lombards in the West) it was dominant for hundreds of years afterward, the Trinitarians gained the immense power of the Roman Empire. Nontrinitarians typically argue that the primitive beliefs of the Christianity were systematically suppressed (often to the point of death), and that the historical record, perhaps also including the Scriptures of the New Testament, was altered as a consequence.

it never left... not totally a religion though... but anything that is more reverent of the natural world is considered pagan... i suppose themes shift.

It never left, there are more of us here then most people realize. We are just more comfortable talking about it now. Its that more people are opening up to old ideas.
