So pagans don't have a religion or morality? That is interesting to hear, as a Hindu. The more things change, the more they remain the same!

I don't know anything about hinduism, but I assume there is a base morality that the strong may not take advantage of the weak, in contrast with the athenian dictum I quoted.

And Hinduism is a so-called pagan religion. Thus, there was no need to pretend that only Abrahamic faiths have a sense of morality.

Did I say anything about abrahamic religions?

No, but you did talk about pagans in a demeaning fashion.

I did, and I included a greek pagan quote to give context to the philosophy to which I was contrasting the 'religion' that OP was criticizing.
I think you are reading too much into a word and perhaps looking to be offended.
