| Topic: Is Voodo a cult or a religion? | |

 The primary concern of a "cult" is usually the acquistion of new followers. The practice of isolation and conversion are important in building a consistent body of worshipers. All religions, including Christianity, went through this phase of their development. It has always and always will be this way.

By that definition then Christianity is the greatest cult ever conceived by man. No other religion can boast of such aggressive proselytizing as Christianity. Not only is their primary mission to a acquire new followers, but they will ruthlessly trample the dignity and character of anyone who dares to stand in their way no matter how righteous that person might be. They seem to have no moral standards at all when it comes to proselytizing for new followers.

It's all black magic....and yes I agree with people will believe whatever it is that they think at that moment works. I brought up the book Kingdom of the cults for a good purpose. There are differences between religion and cults.....religion is based on usually the Bible....where cults imo are people who don't believe it or were hurt in some way and search for something that will fit what they need at the moment. It is not an easy thing to live as God intended, and if people cant for whatever reason they will switch it up to fit what they believe. Voodoo is the darkest of magic.....and yes is considered a religion. And just for me all the dark magic, witches, satanism is all satan involved......Because for me anything that is not of God is of Satan.....If you truly know what voodoo is.......a voodoo priest will call on the diety which is satan......who thrives and lives on the weak and those that don't believe in God....Because if you have a relationship with God....he cannot touch you. Actually, traditional voodoo has nothing to do with "satan" or christianity. It is based on sun and moon goddesses. Mawa is the sun and lisa the moon. But you are right that in the sects of voodoo that mixed it with christianity when it moved through the slave communities of the carribean islands and into the islands and the US. However, these practitioners are more likely to call upon forces of earth, wind, fire or water or even on catholic saints for assistance than to "satan". Some sects do use the "fallen angel" "satan" as a source of power but it's hardly primarily satanic. |

All of the monotheistic religions are that way. It is the nature of believing in "The One God". Its a fundamental philosophical difference from the other types of belief system.

Sugar, by definition they don't worship Satan... they don't believe in his exsistance. There is no such thing as "black" magick, that's all hollywood. VOODOO has priest and preistess, and the preistess calls diety, and THEY DON'T BELIEVE IN SATAN..... Actually some do and some don't. the west african (original) voodoo has nothing to do with christianity or satan. But the american and island versions (voudou, vodun, santeria, etc.) mixed voodoo and christianity- specifically catholicism which is ritualized and thus appealed to them. |
