I had to look up this word today.

Anthropopathism:

"Attribution of human feelings to things not human, such as inanimate objects, animals, or natural phenomena."

It's like the language of appearance. For example...God being described as having bodily parts or human emotion; projecting a human attribute onto God. Which he doesn't of course. (which by the way...it's weird to think God doesn't have a brain like us. How does he think? He obviously has something far superior than our brains).

This concept boggles my mind.
