what im understand from this british researchers is that animism is base only on mythology not philosophy(as in the case of hinduism).which mean that hinduism is a more smart version of hooga booga then animism.
And spirits are a kinda less powerful gods.
This british theories are "great".Acording to them ,you can put even majority of population in the animist camp. If you are not Adi Shankara,Ramanuja or Madhva ,you can easly find your self place in animistic baricade ready to be protected from brahmanism(read converted to the only true religion).
