I could be wrong here but I'm fairly sure that a pagan is a person who follows the craft yet does not believe in any deity. Which technically has the pagans saying na-na-naa and raising the finger to the deity, which they cannot see ( yeah, I'm still working on the last bit )
You're not wrong, to quote Xander Harris, but neither am I in my usage. Historically, a pagan was a follower of a polytheistic religion. From a Christian perspective it has traditionally been a person whose religion is not Christianity (a heathen.) In terms of literature, it has been used to mean a non-religious or only partially religious hedonistic person.
The only people we sacrifice are members of Sineya.....after torturing them, of course. I mean, it would be silly to torture them after they're dead. Where's the fun in that?!
Well, of course. Torturing a corpse isn't very fulfilling. Not that I'd know from personal experience or anything. Moving on.
This Sineyan knew what was up the minute we led him to our dungeon. Kudos to him for accepting his fate so calmly. He went out like a boss!

That was rather classy of him. He is owed respect. I'm glad I'm not to be tortured. I would not be so calm. I mean, uh, of course I would. I'd be like, "Hey, you're doing that wrong. Let me show you." 'Cause, you know, I'm all manly and stuff. Anyone believe me? Nah. Me neither. 😛

My first religion was that of being a Quaker, not part of Christianity and definitely not a heathen. There are some 4300 religions.
