I remember reading this myth when i was a kid, and till this moment it's my favorite, does someone care to share theirs?
It was a scientist, and in his lab he dedicated his time to create worlds, he poured emotions into a cauldron and with the liquid he made bubbles, each created of a single emotion, greed, generosity, love, hate, joy, pain, etc. One day some kids entered his lab, and pured all the emotions into the cauldron and made a bubble, when the scientist came back he got very angry, the children got scared and ran away. The scientist found the bubble the children had made and laughed at the contradictory nature of it, but decided to leave the bubble alone cause it would burst by itself anyway, but with time all the other bubbles the scientist made bursted, and just the bubble the kids made remains, it is the earth.
Btw where the heck does this come form?

I like the one where nothing exploded and made a giant chaotic cloud that spontaniously orderd itself into stars, planets, and living things capable of advanced thinking. It always makes me laugh!

Egyptian myth.
Atum, who created himself, was sitting around over the waters of chaos one day decided to put order to the chaos so he mastrubated the sky and the earth into existence. all the other gods and creation were then created through sexual intercourse from these two first principles. the real myth is of course much more detailed. its pretty cool, i suggest reading it.
also its well worth reading the sumerian creation myth, The Enuma Elish. its considerably older than Genisis, but it still has many of the same stories and events that Genisis tells, with extra details and more stories.
i have no idea where that scientist creation myth comes from, but its interesting. yay bubbles!

i think the biggest problem with your question is the "Pagans:". It scares people away. as for a creation myth, (from a complete third pearson point of vew) would be the kimbybstaa myth that the universe is suspended is a soap bubble of some cosmic shower. If there is such a group named the "kimbybstaa", I offer my humble apologys.
