My family is catholic, but maybe I am a little Pagan. Most of all, I believe in myself.
My parents are from Belgium, so I am too.

Being a heathen or a pagan just means you don't believe in the Jewish/Christian God of the Bible. It could mean you are any other religion.

You forgot Islam. And I was being ironical. I am an atheist.

I'm pretty sure Muslims are considered heathen too (no offense to anyone) because they don't really believe in the same God.

The modern interpretation of heathen as a non-believer is wrong.
Heathen means simply "one who worships on the heather" ironic really as Jesus preached from hilltops, in the streets etc That a term for someone who worships outdoors became a derogatory terms as church buildings became the norm A pagan can certainly beleive in the Hebrew/Christian God ..... he/she has decided not to worship him. A person who only believes in one pantheon of Gods/Goddesses and no other is a Neo-Pagan. |

I'm a Christian. I'm a white American female. My grandpa came from Ireland, and other than that, I'm a melting pot, and my last name came from France.

I am Wiccan.
I live in West Virginia and as far as I'm concerned that's where my family originated from. Somewhere, way back a couple or few hundred years ago, both sides of my family were in Scotland though, which is, I guess, what you were asking for. |

Heeey, me too!
I'm also a Wiccan. My dad's English (but has lived in Australia for more than 20 years now) and my mum's Australian.
