"Paganism" refers to a range of spiritual paths which are Earth centered -- involving their members living in harmony with the Earth and observing its cycles. These are often Neopagan religions based on the deities, symbols, practices, seasonal days of celebration and other surviving components of ancient religions, which had been long suppressed. For example:
The Druidic religion is based on the faith and practices of the ancient Celtic professional class;
Followers of Asatru adhere to the ancient, pre-Christian Norse religion;
Wiccans trace their roots back to the pre-Celtic era in Europe.
Other Neo-pagans follow Roman, Greek, Egyptian and other traditions.
So it's not just witchcraft, although Witchcraft is Pagan.
Hope this helps.

Um, if you haven't noticed, most of us don't judge by that on here... we disagree, yes, but don't hate the other people for differences in religion. Anyways, nate, it says Adam and Eve were the first, not the only people. No where does it say God didn't create more after that. Or, when Eve is cursed after eating the fruit, there's the line "Your pains in childbirth will increase" (or something to that effect), implying that she must have had children before, in order for it to increase. Incest back then wasn't a big deal... there weren't really diseases or anything at that point, those came later, so Cain probably could marry a sister and not worry about it. |

I saw that movie and the parts that freaked me out were the little satan children and when the nails were pounded into Jesus's hands. I also closed my eyes a bit at the flogging scene. I closed my eyes at the first site of mutant-ness on the little kids. The part where Judas's ear got cut off wasn't that bad. wait, that was Judas, right? And with the nails, I just don't like the image of something that's supposed to go through wood going through human flesh as well. I also saw the behind-the-scenes thing of this movie, and Mel Gibson was all "We could make it more real, but we didn't want people to run screaming out of the theatre". lol. I heard somewhere this one lady had a heart attack from seeing The Passion, but she was old and old people just do that. It probably wasn't from the movie. Barfing was probably more common.

It wasn't Judas, it was a solider.
