Pagan is a well used and abused term. Looking at the OED, the definition includes "not believing in the mainstream creed." Whether this means believing in something else or not is not adequately explained. Another definition (not the same one) mentions pre-existing (before Christianity) beliefs. Working on the first interpretation, I do get up in clubs and have in the past made a living out of playing folk music so hit the first criteria. I do not have an imaginary friend, so I suppose I could be classed as pagan in that sense. So, count me in?
