I'm not clear on how you're distinguishing bw religion and sorcery, as if one is bad and the other is not.

@korneliss is cleagreen, one of many attempts to get past comment approval. but yes you do. For one thing, I never said one was either good or bad, which you know. And due to your endless search for ways of making us look bad, you chose that as your query. So cleargreen, try yet again.... and they will, like you wouldn't believe.

I just want to know.

What was the point of labeling one of the world's oldest religion "sorcery" other than to clearly show real ignorance and a lack of understanding?

It's OK if you're curious about so-called spirit religions, but vodouisants would be offended to see their faith labeled as "sorcery".

[otherthanfiction]

Those who refer to themselves as sorcerers don't like the term imposed on them, but they're not babies about it either. Thier idea is "deal with it" although they know the term... which describes the oldest traditional practice in the world... is inaccurate. Its to imply a simularity in practice, not about debasing Voodons or sorcerers. Modern western cilivlization hasn't yet come up with appropriate discriptions for beckoning the other world. My appologies.

Satan/the devil are not even a part of Vodou. People need to do their real research of Vodou.

djomercohen voodoo is when someone is hypnostising someone else to feel what he does to a doll or a certain object, it was known as a "spell" from the mid ages that means brainwash, in hebrew spell is "cishuf\kishuf\kishoof" and is a combination of two words :

Mind Bending. so brainwash and hypnosis is a form of cishuf,

and all witch legends are actually a simule to brainwash and hypnosis turturing caused by sadists, this is what that genretaed the "witch hunt"...

voodoo is demonic there is no good in it

[Insomniacsreflection]

very true. they have no demons, and no truly evil spirits, just spirits that can be cruel if angered or insulted

Fuck what anybody says, Orisha is the only true religion. It has been before all other man-made religions!
