"The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is historically attested and rationally defensible, but you prefer the visions of Shamans"

The "gospel" Jesus is sheer invention. The spirituality of other cultures such as the "shamans" of indigenous peoples are as real as Christian Priests and Ministers. They all profess to have healing powers which derive from supernatural connections. Even though, all religions (thousands of them) have demonstrated "healing" powers--there is no evidence that these healings were effected by supernatural interventions.

"you prefer the visions of Shamans"

I have enjoyed the various rituals in many churches. I have also enjoyed the ritual of the Shaking Tent and wondering just what was going on! In magic, somebody is always trying to fool somebody!
