      10animallover10 Here is an article that I found that can help. www.spiralnature.com/spirituality/spirit-animal-cultural-appropriation/
      I am not Native American but I work and am friends with individuals who are so we have discussions about cultural appropriation and racism in black and brown communities. My friend and I actually have a list of “No No Words” that we have decided to strike from our vocabulary because they actually have racist origins and are offensive to people of color. They are just so ingrained in our vocabulary that we don’t notice.

    'Where animals talk?' Daemons are not animals! I hoped she did some more homework. It are people's souls we talk about in the series, not mere talking animals.. That makes it sound so much less that what they actually entail. And Hester is a hare, not a rabbit. She's way too big (an Arctic hare to be exact).

    Is Miranda religious at all? I'm surprised he's involved with "His Dark Materials", which Pullman wrote with the intention of leading to children to atheism (like the Narnia books are intended to lead children to Christianity). This isn't so apparent in book 1, but becomes clear before the close of book 2.

It's clear that the fallen angels are the good guys (who always tell the truth) and anyone representing God is evil (and in the end God is mysteriously absent).
