Résumé : |
Animism is not merely the religion of tribal societies. Animism is prevalent in every continent and is part of every culture.
This book shows that animistic beliefs are ubiquitous today, whether in the New Age mysticism, horoscope occultism, Haitian voodooism, Chinese ancestor veneration, or Japanese Shintoism. The author presents a rigorous biblical, theological, and anthropological foundation for ministering in animistic contexts overseas or next door |
