Unfortunately, it either isn't distributed to most sites or the name was
clumsily chosen (One or two discussion messages in alt.config, and some
sysadmin creates alt.pagan.)  I think alt.religion.pagan might have been
more descriptive.  As it is, about half the posts are about atheism
(apparently the posters are interpreting pagan as atheist).
