An important part of learning to think in Pagan is what I'm going to call Paganonormativity.

There's no need to say, “This song is sung only at Samhain and at pagan funerals.” It's enough to say, “This song is sung only at Samhain and at funerals.”

Thinking in Pagan, gods is normative; "God" gets quotation marks, as derivative.
In human history, paganism is normative. Non-paganism is the aberration.
