Polytheism
is still the belief of millions of people. According to Edward A. Marshall,
The Hindu pantheon has 330,000,000 deities. Besides these,
trees, rivers, and fields are worshipped. Only a few of their deities are
represented in 109 idol form. Silver, gold, iron, wood and stone are used. Most of
their idols are evil gods. Good spirits receive but little attention.1
