“I met over one thousand Shinto priests and Shintoists, and I have never heard the same words from each of them. In Shinto, people don’t talk in the same pattern. They neither need nor are obliged to talk in the same fashion.”
Quote from Essence of Shinto. This sounds VERY much like the pagan/heathen beliefs of our aryan ancestors. Even from what is left of the Viking age and their belief systems, the "religion" of norse gods was treated VERY differently based on region and even different based on communities. It was very localized, and personal.
