  Speaker 1: Christian Dogma is an article or essay published back in
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: 2019 on December 25th on kufoenvironment.com All right. So let's
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: start by a quote by Philan 2000. It says, In
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: the present day, Satanists are envisioned as a shadowy, illumination-like
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: organization with tentacles in child pornography, drug dealing, snuff field,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Study can help you. Study can help us understand both
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: of these traditions as well as the fears and prejudices
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: of our culture. The essay is named Satanism and the
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: Afro-Caribbean Traditions. Link below. Link on the description. As everybody
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: knows by now, voodoo as a culture and a way
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: of life will not end despite the harsh condition and
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: environment surrounded by it. During the Atlantic slave trade, many
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Africans were transported to their new lands as these people
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: were enslaved, they never forsaken their African background culture. Right?
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: They never left their culture back in Africa when they
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: were enslaved. In fact, they went with it, they took
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: it with them. Before even slavery, Africans were still practicing
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: their culture in their own ways. How it was trickled
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: down from their forefathers and the ancient ones that came
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: way before them Africans were practicing voodoo as it was
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: trickled down by the ancient ones and they were practicing
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: it even before even before slavery came by right through
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: songs stories and folklore mythologies were created in which could
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: help members of the society cope with the harsh reality
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: that they were going through and sometimes used to boost
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: their selves in order to get rid of fear and
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: second-mindedness when conducting highly dangerous and daring activities. Right? So,
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: they used mythology, symbols, foreclaws, you know, the various, do
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: you know the various, the signs they write on the
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: ground and raise some law. Actually, I'll do another episode
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: about various and their meanings. Right? Anyways, at this point,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: worshipping is not significant. as it has never been. Celebrations
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: were done to sustain what they had. They were not worshipping.
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: Celebrations were done to sustain what they had. Or on
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: the other hand, rituals performed to protect themselves by preparing
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: themselves psychologically. Right? They are not getting in a place
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: and just worshipping a date No. Celebrations were done to
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: sustain them. And rituals were done to protect them. Right?
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Or prepare them. Psychologically. And let's tackle this quote from Alvarado,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: from his book. Vubu has been held as quite possibly
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: the oldest religion known to humankind. Right? Originated some 7,000
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: years ago. Alvarado stated this in his book. And people
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: don't know this. People keep thinking that voodoo just started yesterday.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: And that's wrong. As many people were brainwashed by the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: Christian religion which brought with itself rules and regulations to
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: which they thought should be followed. If not, they resolved
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: to extreme ends to ideas, which is a typical move
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: made by the two religions originating from the Middle East,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: being it Christianity and Islam. Since 7,000 years ago, voodoo
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: have been evolving by its practitioners. Right? Adapting different aspects
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: of other cultures which they were individually exposed to since
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: voodoo was. To them, since voodoo is a way of
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: life of people from African cultural background. But they maintain
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: different interests This made it possible for everyone to move
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: on their own direction within this culture. So acculturation happened.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: Different voodoo practitioners started bringing in other culture, other cultural things,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: other cultural deities, other cultural ornaments into their culture. and
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: adapted with it. One of them being Christianity. Right? So,
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: those insisting on others to follow the way they are
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: conducting or practicing this culture seems to be borrowing a
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: handful of traditions from the culture which voodoo despises, and
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: that's Christianity. Right. Christianity disassociates itself wholly with this culture's background.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: They try to erase it from the face of the earth.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: In every way possible, still to date, Why don't we
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: disassociate with them? Why don't we fully erase them by
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: reinterpreting their symbols and making them ours if need be?
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: And as it has always been, right? Remember, Dominican Republican
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: article posted this. Let's read something from that article. In 1804,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: after Haiti declared its independence, the Catholic Church left the
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: island and wouldn't return for 56 years. In the interim,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: voodoo influence and visibility became stronger and stronger. And even
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: when the church returned in the 1860s, They continued a
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: war against the religion, against Voodoo, though this was in vain.
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: You see, I do not believe in Voodoo. I practice it.
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: As I create my own gods and devils, angels and demons,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: whom shall serve my will by the influence of the land,
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: mythological stories, songs, and folklore. Let's read something from Fihilani, 2017.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: In his article, he says, but voodoo is more than
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: a belief system. It is a complete way of life,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: including culture, philosophy, language, art, dance, music, and medicine. That's
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: a piece of Fihlani findings, and it was published in 2017.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: There is no unknown spirit trying to get into my
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: winning or unwilling human vessels. this just Christian propaganda in
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: stories and dogmas. There is only my will that is
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: acted out be it extremely violent or calmly. Some may
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: call that action possession by law but since spirit world
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: is an illusion may it not elude you from reality completely.
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Instead Dress it out in pieces of arts. Right? As
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: evil as they describe voodoo, evil it is. We only
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: separate ourselves, me, myself, from their description of the word evil.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: I'd rather be in a voodoo temple where everyone, despite
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: their sexual orientations, be it gay, lesbian, bisexual, or even
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: transgender can be recognized and judged unbiasedly than be spared
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: milk and honey. Including virgins. Nowadays, there's virgins. We are
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: promised virgins in Ireland. What's going on? Anyway, I think
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: we Me and Sakopata should die here. We don't need heaven.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: And until next time, thank you for joining us again
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: in our 41st episode. I'm your host, Satanist Craig Jamin
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: and your co-host Sakopata. Sakopata. Oh, Satan.
