    Does Chinese folk religion count as paganism? It’s the belief in several gods, or a pantheon, that constitutes a pagan religion. Its confusing what counts and doesn’t, but It’s likely because “paganism” is a European term which only really fits for their dichotomy of “one god versus many gods”.

      Pagan in its simplest form means not christian. That’s the basis of the word and the basis that is still used today. Yes there’s neopagan and all kinds of new ways the term gets thrown around, but not christian is the essence of the word.
