Great project!
I'm just wondering if the heroes we want to honour and commemorate would right be offended by the term "pagan", the word by which their persecutors called them because of contempt and disdain, but a word these heroes of Roman religion would never call themselves. They called themselves traditional Romans, preserves of the cults of our forefathers, and loathed the insults of those who attacked them as "pagans". Because of pride and respect, we should call them on the name they called themselves. Magister Aranearius --Gnaeus Cornelius Lentulus 03:24, 30 January 2010 (CET)
