So is Buddism, Hinduism, you name it -ism.
Christians will continue to practice the Great Commission.
What about Scientology is this a religion?
I have heard many Haitians say they do not need American Christian missionaries coming to Haiti trying to convert them to Christianity.
They see VooDoo as a established and legitimate religion.
Ironic considering that VooDoo is basically a house blend of African tribal practices and Catholicism.
Wrong, VooDoo goes way back in history, long before Catholicism came into existence.
VooDoo has nothing in common with Catholicism.
During this 56 year period houngans and mambos built up the public religion of Haiti, Voodoo, in a weird amalgamation of African spirit religion and Catholicism. Virtually all lwa became associated with Catholic saints (Dumballah the snake lwa is St. Patrick; Erzulie, the earth mother is the Virgin Mary). The most important consequence of this is that Haitians see nothing odd at all with practicing Voodoo and Catholicism side by side and are often very devout about each of them.
So they don't want to talk to your man in the sky? Cool.I have heard many Haitians say they do not need American Christian missionaries coming to Haiti trying to convert them to Christianity.

Voodoo might be a good religion. You don't have to believe in anybody. You just need a couple of real good chicken feet to shake at somebody and some needles to stick into goofy looking dolls.
Vodun is simply worship of one's ancestors, not the negative BS you see with people poking pins in dolls. Its not Christian, nor of God so the Bass doesn't follow it, but those catholics who pray to saints and worship Mary are not different than Vodun practioneers.
And your point, where ever missionaries go they try to convert because THAT IS WHAT THEY DO.I have heard many Haitians say they do not need American Christian missionaries coming to Haiti trying to convert them to Christianity.

One can meld vodun with Catholicism but vodun cannot be melded with the beliefs of the Bible.
