Many countries have different influence from one to another, when I read shamanism that immediately reminded me my country of origin Kazakhstan where it was also one of the first beliefs before Islam and then atheism of Soviet Union influence and now back to Islam. For me, I am open minded, I believe every religion has its good sides and we people can learn the best and also our common sense should play the important role with tolerance to strange thinking too. Actually since I watched recently "Ancient Alien" documentary I am someone who beliefs that it is likely that we are the children of stars and I like that theory :)
