>there's a crossover between this worldview and human biodiversity topics. I would certainly think so. I once heard a religion described as an expression of a people. The values, personality and underlying psychology are wrapped up in how a culture conceives of a divinity, spirits, or whatever else. This understanding came from someone with a secular perspective, but it can also line up with what you're saying. It's also a much better conception of spirit race stuff, then I have heard before.
