The many Christian denominations make up of many branches with a common root. Pagan religions, on the other hand, have nothing in common aside from being identified as "pagan." Some are related to each other, yes, like the Greco-Roman myths, or the ancient druidic beliefs that spanned Gaul and the British Isles. But then there's entirely unrelated religions, like those of the Aztecs and Mayans. Or the ancient Chinese. All are considered pagan.
If you go back far enough, it's possible that they all have the same root. But by that same token, Christianity, Judiasm, Islam, and whatever other "mainstream" religions there are would also share this same root.
