   Sorry, pagans have commonly had thier vrsions of those practices.   
   For exmple; "memorial" as an example:   
      
   "Christianity was not the first religion in the area to practice Communion   
   however, and ritual ingestion remains a common practice in many religious   
   traditions worldwide."   
      
   What others do you suggest?
