How has pagan religion influanced our society today?

Answer 1

Paganism was the main religion in Ancient Times, and many things from Paganism are in todays modern religions such as Christian Churches. Like Christmas was a pagan holiday of the Winter Solsiste . It was the first idea of a divine power, that there were many gods.

Answer 2

I fear this answer may upset some people, but the most important contribution that Pagans made to history would have to be the creation of religion. The Pagan Religion (I prefer to call it a Spiritual Path) is the oldest religion. The earliest pagans simply held nature herself as a goddess and their god was a horned huntsmen (the supplier of their prey). Their beliefs and traditions have been used throughout history to structure other religions and their ceremonies. Simply put, if it wasn't for the Pagans, there would be no religions. At least the religions of our world would be vastly different if not for the pagan structures they were build upon.
