Definition
a person holding religious beliefs other than Christianity, Judaism, or Islam
Etymology
From Latin paganus 'country dweller', from pagus 'country district'
Kelly Says
Pagan originally just meant 'country person' - early Christians used it to describe rural folk who hadn't converted yet. It's fascinating how a geographic term became a religious one!
