anthropomorphism is: the tendency to attribute human motivations, characteristics, or other attributes to non-human things (like weather, nature, etc.).
this idea comes from:
http://www.godlessgeeks.com/WhyAtheism.htm
where it says: ...we often anthropomorphize animals and even objects — giving them “human” qualities. The god concept can be seen as simply the result of people anthropomorphizing the universe. - Mark Thomas, Why Atheism?
