The dictionary definition of pagan is closer to what Liz wrote,
paganism is any religions that isn't based on Abraham with a single
god (eg Christian, Jewish and Muslim).

Even though many past religions may no longer be practiced, I don't
think it's a good idea to lump non-Abrahamic monotheistic religions
together under a single banner. Buildings/temples and other places of
worship still exist from these religions, like ancient Greek and Roman
temples, pyramids in Egypt and south America, Stone Henge in the UK
and native scared sites in various countries from various primitive
cultures.
