I'm not a Pagan myself, but I met a self-avowed Pagan ("Conan") at a greasy spoon Hamburger joint about 2 years ago. He had just got out of the Jackson State bullpen, having done 9 years, on multiple Counts assault and battery with intent to do serious bodily Harm ("Protecting a fellow pagan brother"), as well as trafficking over 50 grams of crystal meth and heroin ("No comment"). He said he was Sworn into Pagans M.C. (motorcyle club) when he was 20 (he looked to be about 40), the method being having 5 guys beat him almost to death. He was a fascinating guy, if somewhat Intimidating.
To this day, I Regret not bringing up the topic of Paganism in our conversation.
