Animism is simply one category of pagan religions. Many forms of paganism probably did derive from animism, among them Japanese Shinto and various elements of Hinduism, as well as the classical Greco-Roman religion.
Others come from a different “revelation”, a theological-philosophical system with a definable origin. Buddhists and Parsis/Zoroastrians are in this category, and arguably some elements of Hinduism, which is a very varied, complex mess.

Yeah dude, for the second time LISTEN UP -- I never used the word "heretic". I take a dim view of Freeptards assigning things to me I did not say. That's your last warning.
