Yeah, I know.....maybe that was a bit harsh. I guess I just can't see having more faith in the seasons or planetary alignments, etc., than with the one that created it all to begin with.

Remember that the Animist’s faith that a particular rock, stream of grove has a spirit is just as strong as the Christian/Jewish/Muslim’s faith that the God of Abraham created the heavens and Earth. Much of our religious belief come from our upbringing. Would you be a Christian if you had not been raised with that belief?
I personally don’t care what a person’s belief is – it’s a very personal thing – as long as they don’t use it as an excuse to harm others.
