OK, this is a mess. I don't even think "worship" is the right name here. I'm going to attempt an overhaul and page move to something like... I don't know. As anything involving "reverence" is too long, I think we should go with the article section this is spun off from: Celtic polytheism#Animistic aspects and go with either Celtic animism or Animism among the ancient Celts. I'm not even sure why this exists independently of the Celtic polytheism article except as a circular file. Seriously. And it needs real sourcing. I don't consider occult presses good sources for ancient Celtic cultures.
OK, "Celtic Animism" is already there as a redirect to this. So I'll just swap it to that. - Slàn, Kathryn NicDhàna ♫♦♫ 18:21, 26 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
- The term animism implies a lot more than attachment to sacred groves, pools and springs. This whole page seems to revolve very much around the theories of three or four writers on folklore and mythology. Wikipedia's own article says, Specifically, animism is used in the anthropology of religion as a term for the belief system or cosmology of some indigenous tribal peoples, especially prior to the development and/or infiltration of colonialism and organized religion. I'm reminded of 1066 and All That's statement, "The Roman Conquest was, however, a Good Thing, since the Britons were only natives at that time". Paul S (talk) 18:41, 21 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
