[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.”
