The Piraha people seem to be people who do not believe in God nor any particular religion, but they do call upon spirits and they believe that these spirits gives them instructions. The act of invoking a spirit for help is a type of worship in its absolute sense in my humble opinion, it is not correct to say that they don't have religious-types beliefs, in fact they are probably atheists since they believe in a plethora of spirits that look after them in the jungles.
Also, see:

As for the link about Hinduism, I don't have the research skills to be able to dig deep on that front, but it is definitely something worthwhile exploring.

So yet again, you (and apparently islam) managed to fuck it up.No- society, your parents amongst a host of other possible reasons could be the reason why you were never compatible, how the hell would you even know whether or not you were compatible as a 3 year old? You're talking out of your arse in a desperate attempt to sound clever. The only way I'd fuck you up is in the vag if you were a girl.

Definition of indoctrination: 1. To instruct in a body of doctrine or principles. 2. To imbue with a partisan or ideological point of view.
