Why is druidism considered a primitive religious system compared to Christianity?

Not trying to make an antichristian thread, but it seems like serious scholars generally treat Druidism as a more primitive religious system, I'm wondering why this is.

Does Druidism have a central doctrine and text?

The absence of that could be a reason just off the top of my head.

Christianity pretty much absorbed all of Druidism into it so lel.

There is no actual (western) druidism available anymore, it was destroyed by Christians during their rise to power.

…but Manly P. Hall and others have lots to say about it and also many Druidic practices such as baptism came from Druids.
