Santeria-Life in the Religion.mov

I see Cuban Santeria as being the calm eye of the storm that is Cuban daily life, a storm where daily difficulties and economic struggle swirl maddeningly around. The practice of the religion helps bring peace of mind and practical answers to a people who seek access to the highest power (i.e., God or Olodumare), through relationships, deeds, and rituals with the Orishas (lesser gods).

@GOLDENFLYWARRIOR Don't assume all witches shed blood for their religion. Many traditions of witchcraft are strongly against animal sacrifice.

BARBARIC BULL SHIT LIKE ALL RELIGIONS. TOO BAD PEOPLE USE RELIGION FOR THEIR RATIONAIZATION AND JUSTIFICATION TO KILL. IT'S A WEAKNESS IN MAN. RED UP ON CARL JUNG! IT'S A POWER TRIP THAT IS STILL THE INSANITY OF MANKIND. STOP KILLING ANIMALS FOOLS AND SEE IT FOR WHAT IT IS. GLAD THEY AREN'T SARIFICING HUMANS STILL. PURE 100% MENATAL BULL SHIT. SOTTA LIKE WITCHES WITH THE SLAUGHTER OF ANIMALS. PURE EVIL KILLS AND HAS NO CONSCIOUS. WHAT IDIOTS ARE THOSE THAT FOLLOW THIS CULT.

@TheYayaBaluande IS THAT CAUSE YOU ARE SO EDUCATED AND STUDIED VARIOUS RELIGIONS? GIVE IT A REST. IT'S BARBARIC BULL SHIT. PURE PRIMITATIVE PSYCHO SHIT LIKE ALL RELIGIONS THAT THINK KILLING IS THE ANSWER TO MANS MENTAL ILLNESS. WHAT PEACE? STOP OBJECTIFING ANIMALS WHICH MEANS HUMAN ANIMALS TOO. MAYBE YOU AGREE THAT RELIGION IS THE WORST OF MAN. LETS BELIEVE IN SANTA CLAUSE OR THE EASTER BUNNY OR MONSTERS OR GODS OR WHAT EVER BULL SHIT MAN FEELS A NEED TO FOLLOW. IT'S THE PROBLEM WITH THE WORLD!

[GOLDENFLYWARRIOR]

P.S ...I KNOW FOR FACT THAT KILLING ANIMALS IS NOT OF A HIGHER CONCIOUSNESS YET A SELFISH ACT OF IGNORANCE. RELIGION IS A POWER TRIP AND HOW CAN THIS RELIGION EVER HAVE EARNED RESPECT WHEN THEY KILL FOR THE SAKE OF KILLING. WHAT A WASTE OF ANIMALS LIFES. THE INDIANS WERE SPIRITUAL TOO AND NEVER SLAUGHTER ANIMALS LIKE WHITE MEN DO NOW. IT'S ALL PURE BARBARIC ACTS OF MAN THAT KEEP THINGS SO VIOLENT. UNTIL MANKIND STOPS OBJECTIFING ANIMALS THERE WILL BE NO PEACE. KILLING INNOCENT ANIMALS IS WRONG!

[GOLDENFLYWARRIOR]

BULL! I AM NOT RELIGIOUS YET SPIRITUAL AND NOT INTO THE KILLING OF ANIMALS FOR THIS REASON THAT IT'S LIFE BEING KILLED MAKES FOR LOGIC OTHER THAN KILLING.PERIOD. YOU CAN RATIONALIZE, JUSTIFY IT ALL YOU WANT YET IT'S ALL PURE BULL SHIT. BARBARIC ACTS OF FOOLS. THEY USED TO SACRIFIC HUMANS TOO ONCE UPON A TIME, PLEASE, GET AN EDCAUTION AND STOP THE IGNORANCE. ANY RELIGION THAT KILLS ANIMALS FOR A SACRIFICE IS LIKE A PSYCHOPATH AND WITHOUT A HIGHER CONSCIOUS. RESPECT? STOP KILLING INNOCENT ANIMALS.

@GOLDENFLYWARRIOR Hello I am Brazilian and I am of the religion of Umbanda. Umbanda is say Santeria in Cuba. and this came as a religion with African roots of Catholicism and indigenous religions, African nations have absorbed the ritual of animal blood, blood vegetation (herbs and plants), and blood mineral (stones and tools). Finally we just want respect.

@GOLDENFLYWARRIOR Ola eu Sou Brasileiro e sou da religião da umbanda. a umbanda digamos que seja a santaria em Cuba. essa e uma religião que como veio de raizes africanas com o catolicismo e as religiões indigenas, absorveram das nações africanas o ritual do sangue animal, sangue vegetal (ervas e plantas), e sangue mineral (pedras e ferramentas). enfim queremos apenas respeito.

I see Santeria as a triumph of the human spirit.. surviving the abyss of slavery, being taken from your home and isolated for many generations in poverty and oppression. And yet, the traditions and philosophies have survived, against all odds. Inspiring, indeed.
