Did Dyslexia Cause the Chinese to Worship Dog?



Did dyslexia cause these Chinese to worship dog?

That was the idle (or is it idol?) thought that flitted through my brain as I flipped through this article:

Dog dressed in human clothes sits on throne at Chinese worshipping festival


A world ruled by dogs may seem like an impracticable utopia for canine lovers, but in China they have turned that doggy dream into a reality.

It’s called Dog Carrying Day, an annual event which involves worshipping a dog dressed up in human clothes (yes, you did just read that).

Miao people carry one lucky dog in a sedan chair on dog carrying day, a traditional local festival, in Jianhe in China's southwestern Guizhou province.
