Details

Sikhism

  • Sikhism is an offshoot of Hinduism, but is monotheistic. It was influenced by Sufis, but not by Islam.
  • Sikhism prohibits Halaal meat, because it hates ritualistic killing of animals.
  • It also believes that when sin increases in earth, God will incarnate.
  • It rejects the final word of god.
  • It rejects the belief of lineage form Adam and Eve.
  • It rejects circumcision and burial of the dead.

Shinto

  • It regards the Kami as the god
  • It is nature itself, and can be seen as single or as multiple
  • Western classification of it as polytheistic is not supported by Japanese people

Shamanism

I usually like Shamanism, but there are downsides.
Like this exorcism ritual.

I guess, this is how human generally are when they start life.
This could also explain the rise of strict monotheistic religions.
