I think that the view on this topic had by the extremists who want to
believe that shamans are also slavers (I really can't say if it is true or not,
just that it's what they see it as), is that the Shaman makes the spirit
"an offer it can't refuse" to coin a phrase. They would see shamanic
conjuring as enslavement disguised as free will, since shamans always seem
to get what they want anyway!
