I often wonder if they actually venerate gods, or simply sacrifice to them. I seem to recall that this practice was popular until the Return to Rightness movement.

I'm not sure I agree with "majority," but it's certainly common. From my notes:
"Many folks acknowledge the Invisible God but also worship gods from Fonrit such as Ernamorla the Millet Goddess, northern gods such as Issaries, or the Umathelan Lightbringers."
