A Pagan is anyone that isn't a follower of the Abrahamic God. So if your not a Christian, Muslim, or Jew...you're basically a Pagan.
Actually not true; wicca, shamanism, neo-druidism, druidism, odinism and even stanism, are all pagan, yest. Greco-roman styled pantheons and religions can also be considered paganism, but there are numerous modern movements like scientology, jediism,etc that aren't pagan, ntm eastern religions are definitely not.
Also what makes Odinism different from Greco-roman styled pantheons?
And Druidism wasn't a religion, as far as I'm aware.
All right, I stand corrected-paganism is a term that can be used for any non-abrahamic religion, though I have never seen any eastern religion classified as "pagan". Sorry-i got confused there.
Odinism is really just a modern adaptation of the old norse religion.
For druidism, I pulled this definition off of dictionary.reference.com: 'the religions or rites of the druids'
As far as I know, most people that practice an Eastern religion don't normally call themselves Pagan. That would probably be why.
Odinism is just one adaptation of the old Norse religion. I got confused by you're wording on why you would classify Odinism with Wicca and Satanism as definate Pagan religions and then the Greaco-Roman as like a maybe.
Before the Romans wiped them out, Druids were just a caste within the Celtic culture. They acted as clerks, priests, lawyers, teachers, ect. I've heard them classified as the learned class within the culture.
And since the Romans wiped them out there are a number of people who think Neo-Druidism is cultural misappropriation since there were no Druids to teach these "new Druids".
