Paganism worships creation instead of the Creator. [ William Cave ]

Paganism attributes the creation of the world to blind chance. [ Richard Baxter ]

In paganism light is mixed with darkness, and religion and truth are blended with superstition and error. [ Lindley Murray ]

The exhaustion of taste, genius, and splendor upon its fables and ceremonies, even to our times, constitute the ancient paganism a marvel of all that was attractive and magnificent. [ R. W. Hamilton ]

The Greeks adored their gods by the simple compliment of kissing their hands; and the Romans were treated as atheists if they would not perform the same act when they entered a temple. This custom, however, as a religious ceremony declined with paganism, but was continued as a salutation by inferiors to their superiors, or as a token of esteem among friends. [ Disraeli ]
