Indeed.

And of course, what's to define 'ritual'? I think we may view the rituals of our ancestors heavily influenced by modern ritual in many cases. These places probably aren't quite as esoteric as we might like to think.

I've been looking at all the commercial Christmas stuff on sale this last month, and as ever, marvel at the bizarreness of it all. If the were to be an excavation 4,000 years from now and they dug up one of those grotesque light-up Santas, everyone would say that we worshipped some old red and white man. Hmm, thinking about it, perhaps we do . . .
