you need to understand what you are reading, if a culture regarded the clouds as god, or if they didn't have the right ways and knowledge to express what they were experiencing and misunderstood and miscommunicated certain things doesn't make it the right way because it was historically older, the oldest 'ideology' was barbarism.  all ancient cultures and nations had the same or similar pre-evangelical understanding of the world and the divine which they expressed in their own way depending on their biases, knowledge and the capability of their languages, hence why you find so many similarities in the religions of ancient cultures, they all have a common origin but they diverged and transgressed, you don't want to imitate the transgressed version but the integral one.
