I were born into a christen household, my family are christen, just don’t go to church. Anyway my awakening were when I were harry potter, along have people who were into the occult come into my life for a second, and then leave. Another form of awakening were from hearing the song god is a women by Ariana Grande, who is ones of my favorite pop singer, including a pop group known as Fifth Harmony who sing black magic.

If you believe anything outside of Abrahamic traditions then you are a pagan. Even if you don’t have a god or a religion. I love the term heathen but now it has been appropriated by the Asatru practitioners.

Nowadays you choose to be pagan you’re not automatically pagan 
though I know druids of the Irish faith were called heathens too.

I used to practice Wicca on and off for years. It never quite fit me.
I found myself in quite dire circumstances a good few years back and prayed for a way out.
God didn’t answer but another did. This started me on the path I am on today.

Yes my dude. You went all technical yet if you see the question is quite obvious what it meant. But hey if you want to put a college class on heathen and paga be my guess. We all know what it means to be called a heathen and pagan by non magickal folk. I guess the issue is the coloquial meaning versus technical meaning. Meh to each it’s own.

What I took the question to mean when, when did you deviated from your traditional religion? I guess I took it wrong. I’m not much into labels created by anthropologists since they rarely match how your Common folk understand the concept. Just like for anthropologist a witch in any culture is a magick user for evil yet the people here don’t see it that way.
As a former Christian in my old church Muslim, Buddhist, and my religion that was non Christian where deemed pagan and heathens. And for most people in Puerto Rico this is the normal meaning of those words. Neo pagans are la led alternate spirituality not paganism.

Born a Catholic.
Preserved the rules as closely as my consciousness could.
Prayed and made promises.
Wanted to learn more about Abrahamic God, so I ate the bible and the Quran.
Bad times came, Prayers unanswered, waited more, and more and more and more more. Until, I discovered something really interesting, stricken like by thunder I understood that an absolute God cannot have a name, and not all books put together can explain his reasoning because an Absolute God cannot have one.
If you are silent maybe you get to listen, but the Absolute God never communicates. Any spirit is at the same distance from the Absolute God which never interacts.
We can, however interact with other spirits, and there is an infinite hierarchy of them

I became a pagan because paganism allows me to be true to myself and not have to worry about constant judgment or unrealistic expectations.

Simply put “Jesus Christ man! Jesus Christ simply wasn’t working”
I was always a skeptic to be honest but I began to embrace Jesus Christ or God or whatever and the more I did the worse things got. Most Christians I told the story to claimed this was a test from God. Yawns. Discarded “God” embraced many other Gods including the God within and I’m doing soooo much better now.

i rejected christianity once i realized it was a fear based system, around age 18. Then i came in contact with some hindu books and read those and they made me feel really good, and also expanded my mind with a far larger idea of the divine. I guess that makes me a “pagan”
