I agree with your first post, but don't see the need for this second one. I was using a Bible reference and so used Bible terminology.
Aside from that, we regularly see people referred to by their title. "Christ" is a title, not a name, yet he is called Christ without confusion. (Never mind the fact that, if we understand the meaning of the word, we see that the Jews had many, many "Christs," including King David who was "annointed.")
Back to the other topic; I had an enlightening conversation with a co-worker one day. I had a small altar to Hanuman on my desk at work, and I asked him whether he considered a devout observant Hindu to be the same as a Satanist. He replied that since any religion except Judaism and Christianity were the deceitful work of Satan, the two were morally equivalent. This changed how I view the whole debate.
So, while Pagans have nothing to do with Satan, within the Christian weltanshauung, they are worshipping Satan (whether they knwo it or not.)
Argument becomes meaningless when the two sides have different definitions for the terms being used.
