I found it a sad loss of history personally, not reinforcing for a materialistic viewpoint. I also don't hold the belief that what a shaman does or is capable of has anything to do with protecting themselves from harm. But I've never been with the shamans killed and they may very well have claimed just that in which case OC's point is well made. In lieu of that, it's well made for those who would defend a shaman's ability to magically protect themselves from death.

Yes, somebody is going to explain their whole philosophy of life just so you can offer an ad-hominem response that has nothing to do with whether or not shamans can heal people. 
Here's my philosophy of life: You can give your life whatever meaning you want. Somehow, I manage to do that without believing in spirits, ghosts, gods, magic, shamanic healing, or other nonsense designed to convince people they will live beyond their death. I also manage to treat my fellow beings decently, without a conviction that I will be punished by a higher power if I fail to do so.
Bizarre, huh?

...but you can't make it believe unsupported bullshit just by repeating it over and over again.
Is that how the saying goes?

so, you don't believe in spirits, ghosts, gods, magic, shamanic healing, or other 'nonesense'. you don't believe we will live beyond death. But you respect people even though you don't do it cause you fear some higher power will punish you if you don't.

Haha the saying goes something like that (only rainforest medicine is not B.S. and is substantiated as in the previous page)... However Hitler might say Quote:
Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it”
And his friend Joseph Goebbels:
Quote:
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
Reminds me of the self-inflicted wound/false-flag terror attacks of 9/11; and the Reichstag fire.

I believe the churches may make up these gods and say only they can commune with them so they can sit on their ass and get free food from the community.
