If you accept the definition of pagan as:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pagan \Pa"gan\, a. [L. paganus of or pertaining to the country,
pagan. See {Pagan}, n.]
Of or pertaining to pagans; relating to the worship or the
worshipers of false gods
----------------------------------------------------------------------
that makes the various sects of the judeo-christian belief system
pagans as far as my parent's belief system is concerned (personally,
I find most these belief systems indistinguishable from village ojhas
in India; [witch doctors who believe in gods of thunder, lightning,
electricity, etc, and who believe in exorcism as the proper
treatment for snake bites], but who am I to come between people and
their superstitions).
