I'm sorry, English isn't my first language and I'm having trouble articulating what I mean. Perhaps primitive isn't the best word. What I'm getting at are ancient societies from before any kind of globalization.
I would challenge anyone to identify any society - regardless of the period or its nature* - that did not have both religion and what might be called "superstitious beliefs."
(*) we don't normally speak of "primitive societies" since it implies that there is some "ascent toward better, advanced societies," which "we" typically identify as "us." I get your meaning, but you probably want to talk about ancient or non-literate societies or cultures.
