wrong. Paganism: any of various religions other than Christianity or Judaism or Islam

Well if thats the case then Sihkism, Bahai faith, Buddhism, Babism, Scientology and Pastafarianism are all "pagan" religions.
(none of these religions are pagan)

I am sure medieval Christianity would have advocated that this is the case, but now the term refers to religions that are not monotheistic, and are polytheistic.

North American Indians generally had vague, but monotheistic beliefs.

You cant have a religion that is both monotheistic and pagan at the same time.

Those are all pagan religions.

Where did you come up with all the rest of that? Did you just make up a new definition?
