I didn't realize that some people considered pagan derogatory.

I am a pagan and proud of it.

The Vernal Equinox, a celebration of Eostre became Easter.

Most of the naked dancing I know about is during the May Day celebration, also known as Beltane.

I'm not a pagan, but the majority of the people in my valley use that term to describe their beliefs. On Solstice there was a small gathering to pray for a good friend who is very sick.

No party this year. But you can expect one hell of a bash for Samhain. Everybody's welcome.

Sadly, no. The possible headaches outweigh the possible benefits.
