[41.1] Westermarck maintains the view in his _Origin and Development
of Moral Ideas_, pp. 663-664, that in many savage religions the gods
have no concern with ordinary morality; but the statistics he gives
need careful testing.
[42.1] _Op. cit._, p. 170; as far as I know, only one fact might be
cited in support of Tiele’s view, a fact mentioned by Jastrow, _op.
cit._, p. 52, that the ideogram of Enlil, the god of Nippur, signifies
Lord-Daimon (Lil = Daimon); but we might equally well interpret it
“Lord of Winds.”
