About Haitian Voudou
(A Propos Du Voudou Haitien)
This important book, written in French and Creole addresses the issue of Haitian Voudou from a Christian perspective.
About Voudou
Voodoo ... is not a myth which can be ignored, a mere popular culture that would take the opportunity to teach or practice in schools even in the form of dancing or singing. For their part, the gods of voodoo are far from being mere idols, gods dumb or harmless. Rather, they are real beings, intelligent minds, thirsty for worship and full of malice ...
About Zombies
The individual is "dead" by the effect of magical procedures. Then he is brought out from the dead. This is a "dead-alive," a zombie. This would then produce a change in his status, a physical-mental new situation. He loses all freedom of thought and action or determination. His new life is made of enslavement, being called to work in a garden, in a public office, in a commercial house, etc..
