Bizarre

Can you please show me where Linda and I put voodoo before the country of Haiti, or where we are promoting voodoo?

With all due respect sir, you seem to have a reading comprehension difficulty that is called for your immidiate attention.

I posted a website on here yesterday that is about Louisiana voodoo which also provides other links to the Haitian voodoo, and the history of voodoo, etc. etc...

Bizzare, adopt the old saying "Knowledge is Power", read it so you can be informed.

you a lot of good.

Bizzare, with all due respect, voodoo is not what is destroying Haiti, what is really destroying Haiti are narrow minded, uninformed, and people with limited knowledge like yourself.

Linda and I have only been trying to inform people like yourself about something that you have a hard time to understand.

Linda and I are not voodoo priests, mambos, hougan, or voodoo worshipers/practicants either, so we are not gaining anything from it. We both do acknowledge the effect of vodoo in the Haitian society.

But you and other uninformed people like yourself who claimed to be holy saviors, the soldiers of God, keep calling to ban voodoo in Haiti as you claimed it to be the reason for the poverty and Haiti's failure, and with that Haiti will never go foward.

All Linda and I are saying is that this is the most moronic, ignorant, and idiotic statements we have ever heard.

How can voodoo destroy Haiti and represent the number one obstacle to Haiti's advancement when it doesn't have these same effects on Louisian, on Florida, on Cuba, on Dominican Republic, on Benin, ect. etc..

where voodoo is widely practiced?

You chose to avoid our questions and keep rambling by making a bunch of nonsense statements.

Linda and I have been trying our best to reason with people like you on why voodoo can't be banned, or get rid of in Haiti due to the fact it is part of the Haitian culture as it is part of the culture of these countries that I just mentioned above.

Understanding the true meaning of culture, we are saying that nor you, or the government, or religious missionaries crack heads can get rid of something that is part of a culture.

It is like demanding to get the rid of crime in the United States, which will never happen because crime/violence is part of the American culture.

You can only bring it down but not getting rid of it, big difference!

I know this is the first time you maybe heard of crime/violence as part of the American culture and you probably will come swinging at me from all different direction, but I am waiting for that. But if you were a well informed person you would certainly know that already.

Bizzare, I am not insulting you in any form and shape but you need to understand something, just because someone hold a Ph.D doesn't mean that person is well informed.

This is wide spread misperception within the Haitian population who believe once they know how to read and write, or have a college degree they are well informed about everything under the sun, but that's not true. You have to take different steps and do the leg work required in order to get yourself informed about a lot of things.

Bizzare you must understand that just because you, myself, Linda, and others, don't like voodoo, and have the most dispecable taste for voodoo doesn't mean it must be banned and get rid of. Getting the rid of voodoo is destroying a big part of the Haitian culture, and culture is what makes a people stand out, it is the identification of a country, a people, and a nation.

It is a version of your DNA.

"There are no stupid and dumb cultures, they are only different."

Now, there is something we, as a nation, can do if we want to slow down the practice of voodoo in Haiti and that is to create a lot of jobs that the people can have a place to go, something productive to do and get paid for it. In a word give an income to the people to feed themselves and their families, and you'll see how much voodoo practicing will go down.

But voodoo is here to stay!
