Some of the artifacts that hint at religious rituals include

-- fish hooks in the mud at the bottom of the pond

-- golf balls buried under leaves in the forest

-- empty beer cans on hill tops in the country

-- sad, old, deflated, limp footballs under the bleachers

-- rusty Corvettes wrapped around trees with their engine blocks in the front seat

-- sticky hypodemic nerdles in trash cans at the public park
