Before Paganism: the ancient faith of Native Americans

http://lancasteronline.com/article/local/421637_Column--A-look-at-oft-forgotten-faith-tradition.html

My interview with Lone Wolf, a member of the Ojibway band from Michigan's Upper Peninsula, was a great opportunity for me to discover more about the faith of those who seek to hew to an old tradition. I continue to be both fascinated and baffled by our American bent towards syncretism.

And I wonder why the earth-based faith of this ancient people doesn't get more attention -- Native Americans are as numerous as, say.. American.Episcopalians or Jews.
