If someone calls Native American spirituality superstitious, is the person racist and bigoted or ignorant towards indigenous cultures?
The term "superstitious" can be offensive and can come off as insensitive and ignorant.

@BohemianBabe Examples of conservative superstitions comes from mostly abrahamic religions that are patriarchal that put men above women, and controls women's bodies by strict abortion laws, they make laws against LGBTQ+ rights, and they don't care about nature nor the environment, they burn and ban books, or teach Young Earth creationism in schools, laws against free healthcare and they want guns and Confederate flags in schools.
I've never heard of any Indigenous tribes or groups or any indigenous or tribal spiritual wisdom or philosophical group burning books or trying to make laws that attack and marginalize certain groups. Dont forget in the dark ages in Europe, men were burning herbalist women and accusing them of being witches.
Honestly I would think it would be more superstitious or backwards yokel to think there's only 2 binary genders.
Gender is fluid and race is a social construct and climate change is real and the confederate flag is a fascist Trumpist flag.
Marginalized spiritualities and philosophies tend to be more liberal don't threaten society compared to the Conservative majority religion that's ruling.
A religion is a complex system, spirituality and philosophy is not complex, there's no temples, churches or lodges for spirituality or philosophy. Spirituality is liberating and personal, religion enslaves.
