Christianity and Paganism

Christianity and Paganism are two different kinds of religion. Christianity is a religion that is based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. People who follow this religion believe that Jesus was the son of God, who died for the sins of all people and rose from the dead. Paganism is a different kind of religion that was practiced before Christianity. It was based on the worship of lots of different gods and goddesses. People who practiced Paganism believed that these gods and goddesses were in control of the forces of nature and could influence their lives. Christianity and Paganism both have different ways of practicing their beliefs, different ceremonies, and different stories they tell.
