You need to draw a distinction between justified and unjustified anthropomorphism.
Clearly there are justified cases, such as when we anthropomorphize blobs of meat and bones, calling them persons.
Other times, we look at objects around us and anthropomorphize their causes, believing people designed them, and not rainfall and erosion.
So not all anthropomorphism is bad, right?
