Try looking at it from the viewpoint of the original Americans and it

The cynical definition of a pagan is someone who believes in a

had seen quite enough of state enforced religious practices when they
started writing. Wise men.


What???

Every Christian or Jew has an imaginary friend. The native Americans saw
divinity everywhere, and "state enforcement"??? How do you connect that idea
with their spiritual beliefs???
