(FB 1552742160 Timestamp) HEATHEN VS PAGAN DISAMBIGUATION —“Curt, do you see Heathen and Pagan as concurrent/overlapping or do you see one preceding the other? I thought the terms were synonyms.”—Alan Robbins ORDER IN TIME 1. Heathen (hearth / spirits / nature) 2. Pagan (family of gods / archetypes / society) 3. Christian (one god / ruler / monopoly / politics) 4. Science (man, heroes, universe, markets) DISAMBIGUATION The disambiguation between heathen and pagan is mine given the overlap. Pagan is a definite construction of the semitic era of organized religion. Heathen is a term that had no organized religious connotation.
