As a non-Christian non-pagan (mostly wannabee Buddhist type), I certainly wouldn't judge anyone else by his trollish behavior -- any more than I would take my Christian friends to task for idiotic things I hear "religious" politicians say. I didn't think he was a pagan jerk, just a jerk, period.
It actually comes close to an "un-pagan" thing to say.
That reminds me of the quip, "Christianity is a nice idea. Pat Robertson should try it sometime" (which I think is a twist on something said by Gandhi). Clearly this guy has no idea of how to empathize with other people, which I personally consider the bedrock of most spirituality, religious or otherwise (love your neighbor as yourself, blahblah). That or he just likes stirring up shit on the internet because his eentsy little penis is obviously insufficient for his amusement.
