As I've said before the transition involves risk. Shamanism demands the involvement of the entire person and a risk of madness in the search for a primal experience of the sacred. Priesthood is mostly rule following and rational, though that can be debated and I know there are some who question the sanity of the priesthood. Religion is a way to venerate the remains of past religious practice from a safe distance.
