No matter how well dressed the skunk is, put it in a Tuxedo it is still a skunk. Theists write apologetic elaborate tripe an par with encyclopedias. It is a self inflicted perpetual motion machine in the form of a delusion.

archeology tells us how the mayans worshiped
the link showed you how the followers of mohameed worship
go and do likewise.

Ah but just once, just one time, I'd like for the person that says "therefore spirits" to ante up with the damned spirit their babbling about. A world -with- dryads would be more amusing (to me) than a world without them. I mean c'mon, I love the stories, let's make shit happen.
Hell, I'm only asking that folks inclined to sing this particular song stop being asshats and provide the goods their trying so hard to sell. I'd buy them.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

People have done science on prayer and worship - all it showed is that it had the same effect as certain chemicals or mental activities on the brain. It didn't prove the existence of supernatural beings - many of which, by the way, are sought every day by investigators who also haven't turned up so much as a ghost.

Well...not quite. We have a general picture of meso-american belief and worship structure but reason to doubt the meatiest parts of it as european sensationalism. Regardless of how the followers Ay Chuy Kak or Allah worship this says nothing with regards to the proper way to worship some existent spirit flitting about in some existent ethereal realm, as neither of these traditions have anything to do with either. You're talking, again, about your fellow nutters beliefs, and to be completely blunt, their beliefs (and your beliefs about their beliefs) are far less interesting to me than any spirit would be. If all you could muster was the god of lost socks, that would get my rocks off far better and for far longer than anything that you or they believed.
Please point out anything scientific, anything at all, in either case with regards to proper worship of a any deity that anyone has ever believed. Anything whatsoever.

How much of a comic book do you have to read, no matter how long it has been buried, to know that it is a comic book?
If I write a book about being a billionaire, even though I am not, then it got buried right now, write lies about knowing Donald Trump and then 5,000 years from now someone unearths my book, does that mean I really was a billionaire because I quote real places and real people?
If an archeologist unearths something, they unearth relics of a culture, regarding their habits, politics and superstitions, they are not unearthing proof of any fictional invisible friend.

No, no no, words therefore spirits, or some such gibberish.

The out to all questioning is one's ego which allows delusion to fester and the only cure is a mirror.
