Animism has its roots all over the world. Most peoples at least started with some form of animism, and some still practice it today. Japan's official religion, Shinto, is an example of animism. Many of the American Indian tribes were and still are animistic.

Animism (the attribution of a soul to plants, inanimate objects, and natural phenomena.) is practiced by a wide range of New Age gurus and people who want to appear "not religious but spiritual". For the first group it is a money making adventure and for the second a way to avoid the trap of being thought to be an atheist without the social penalty.Some native cultures in North nd South America, Australia and Africa continue in traditional beliefs which are essentially animism.
