Pagans have been doing that for far longer than Christians have been around.
I think most current Pagans do it because they are unhappy with their current religion and are looking for a spiritual outlet. Most of it is just recently made up attempting to fit an old mold which has been long dead and would most likely horrify modern pagans.
Plus the term Pagan is just WAY to encompassing. Romans and Celts were both Pagan but very different in their approach.
Really I think the old Roman religion meshed well with human nature. The Gods were human in motivation and easy to understand. You could worship a sect and tolerance was found in that you didn't say the other gods didn't exsist, just that they were not your primary god.
Plus of course any religion with temple prostitutes is A+ in my book.
