"this will sound extremely left field, may even make people angry. forgive me. im a little delusional!!!! i have some warped questions.
is rastafari or in other faiths, do people, most people know that jesus i god deep down andthat the devil is controlling this earth and the people in this earth are corrupted ad need salvation in jesus hrist.
do yorubas vodouns and santerios know they are worshiping the devil. do they secretly praise jesus at the end of the day?
is their a curse the yorubans put on europeans to get back at them for slavery? that wold be reasonable right? I have heard native americans also put a curse on europeans...
do shango baptists really invoke the devil of the bible?
do some rastas think they are going to hell, and want to try to get cultural appropriating babylonians to damn themselves by following a crazy religion that sometimes preaches jesus, sometimes that elassie is jesus in kingly character, and sometimes preaches everything is everything, or all is a conception of the mind, (like what the 5 percent nation of gods and earths says, arm leg leg arm head, we are all god)
do they reach this conclusion after meeting satan in their head? and then telling themselves its all in the mind.
do high level babalawos realize they are worshiping evil?
are hodou priests jsut joking when they talk of the devil?
are africans really friends of satan back i the day and they unleashed a curse on the europeans to get them to try ad follow their ways? (since they were just saty that they were doomed?)"
your nickname is surely a misnomer.
first off, in Yoruba Culture there is no devil or satan , there is only Echu or Elegba or Elegua , no such thing as satan or the devil exists in Yoruba culture, so this renders 90% of your questions ignorant, off mark or useless at best and downright subversive from another perspective.
the remaining 10% of your questions are just plainly rediculous.
this is why the obvious thing for u to do is stick with what you grew up with kid., Jesus is Lord and is coming soon to save you and all believers, while the rest of the heathen and non-believers are going to hell in a handbasket.
very simple , not complicated and easy to digest, don't fret yourself any longer with tough questions. when you have a wicked thought just remember it is not of your own volution but the devil made you think the evil or moreso do the evil, you personnally had nothing to do with it. what's so hard about that? the bible is the absolute truth of God's word for all men period. no mystery there, very concise, practical and good sense. the only request that a person such as myself might make of you, is that you do it for yourself, privately, preferrably in your prayer closet, where you can nurture a personal relationship with the Lord directly and not include outside people of differing views and cultures, contaminating your sacred right to salvation.
