Pagan Fiction Literature And Movies

By Jody Leach


Paganism can be defined in so many ways depending on the point of view. According to Christians, a pagan is anyone that is not a believer. Any individual that does not believe in Jesus Christ as the Messiah, holy trinity and God the almighty is a pagan. However a more open minded view defines paganism as any religion that does not have origins from Abraham. This brings us to pagan fiction literature and movies.

Any person that subscribes to the classical ways of the world can be referred to as a pagan. Even the people that do not adhere fully to their religious ways can be classified as pagans generally. This widens the group profoundly. The actual paganism community has a number of beliefs of its own and these are basically from way back in history. They originate from pre modern Europe.

Recently another distinguished group of pagans has come up. These new breeds are known as the neo-pagans. They are a blend of the old cultures of paganism and an integration of modern day cultures and beliefs. This group comprises of elite of the world who have put so much energy into the study of universe. They basically have very few similar ways with the old pagan ways.

The history of paganism dates way back to the beginning of Christianity. At this time people were identified using their religious affiliations. The Hebrews had not embraced any known religion yet and so were termed as the Hellenes. Hellenes is a term used to describe pagans as well. As time went by the name became popular and that was the birth of this religion.

These people embraced the brand and started their own religion called paganism. Having no spiritual foundation, these pagans had to formulate some in writing. Mind and imaginations were tasked to come up with something good and worthwhile. They started the fictional writing. These writing entail the distinct ways and beliefs of these people.

Books written with an attempt to portray the pagans ways are highly fictional and tailored to entertain the open minded. Such writing featured creatures unseen on earth and abilities unknown to man. Pagans believe in the existence of magic and people born with special magical capabilities. This belief is vividly shown in majority of the books written with particular titles.

Nothing can be more entertaining than a pagan titled motion picture. Whenever this literature is converted into a movie, people embrace it highly. This is basically due to the innovativeness and creativity portrayed in these movies. These motion pictures are characterized with a highly natural setup and people with all sorts of inhuman features and supernatural powers.

Therefore as much as people despise paganism as a religion, their cultures and traditions have been widely embraced. The works of this religion are enjoyed by so many people in the community at large. The movies created from their culture and beliefs are the most watched to date.
