I like the way Pagan works for many, but isn't it funny how we are so used to 'classifications' or 'labels'. If you tell someone you are Christian, or Muslim, then you get an idea of where they are coming from and what they are about. Where if you state you are Pagan, that can pretty much mean anything. It doesn't actually describe your particular ideas.
If I were to say I have no religion, then some people would accept that as understandable. If I were to say I was Pagan, that would not tell them anymore than the first statement, however I'm sure some people would make assumptions as to what Pagan means.
That is both conflicting and interesting.
