A liberal UK reporter sites historical data on Haiti's “80% catholic, 100% voodoo” religious heritage. Also, evangelical missionaries to that country will tell you that it is most decidedly NOT CHRISTIAN.
For those who don’t know what Haitian Vodou (correct spelling ) is, here is a brief explanation :
The principal belief in Haitian Vodou is that there are various deities, or Lwa (commonly spelled Loa), who are subordinate to a greater god, known as Bondyè, who does not interfere with human affairs. Therefore it is to the lwa that Vodou worship is directed. Other characteristics of Vodou include veneration of the dead and protection against evil witchcraft.
It is based upon a merging of the beliefs and practices of West African peoples, (mainly the Fon and Ewe also known as West African Vodun), with Roman Catholic Christianity, which was brought about as African slaves were brought to Haiti in the 16th century and forced to convert to the religion of their owners, whilst they largely still followed their traditional African beliefs.
This suggests to me at least that conversion to Christianity was mostly HALF-HEARTED for a lot of the people.
Right, because all evangelicals know that Catholics are not christians.
And how come, with every one of the ten million protestant denominations constantly sending missionaries there, it's not a christian country?
