Not all ancient shamanic societies vanished into history. Many survived into the 21st century, and still hide their religious beliefs today, under the modern inquisition, as they have had to do for thousands of years. Shamanic traditions struggle to survive in North and South America, Africa, Asia, Siberia, and Australia, as even today with "Freedom of Religion" these people, as well as all people, still live under --The Pharmacratic Inquisition.
