I am more atheist than most atheists since I know that there is no monotheistic tyrant sky god

since I have free will, as a shaman as a sorcerer, to take control of my own immortality

I take control of my own soul. The purity of my own soul is solely my responsibility



it is the most atheistic spiritual ideology if you want to call it that in existence

yes but it was Mircea Eliade who theorized the idle-god , or high-god paradox , which is what atheists typically have the most trouble againstshamanism is a kind of animism yes . animism is the belief that life in the natural world is itself divine , if I am not mistakenbut animism be careful this is a word thought up by western anthropologists, not how the animists themselves understand things . be careful with words like that they're hard to define .the English gothic is a kind of panentheism, there is a divine element hidden somehow within nature and ourselves, but it is sacred , and to access it requires rending or lifting the veilKorean shamanism , in my not so humble opinion, is like that .itself having syncretized with charismatic Christianity, helped create it in fact largely within the u.s. , a lot of the u.s. mega churches are S.Korean in originand S.Korea today, their mysticism is rather gothic . their intellectuals learning english and etc that would make television and pop music they seem to have a thing for mysticism and the gothicso. be careful about that.Japan is another great example . their mystical art is gothic , not animistic . Wicked City is a great movie , it's a divinity behind the veilnormally when people think of animism, they think of primitive people who don't reason and can't perceive a separation between conventional life and the divine , they worship false idols, and so on.. this the attitude westerners who created the word 'animism' have about animistic beliefs .
