Its practiced under the guise of Christianity in both America and over here in the UK. The europeans beat, blugeoned and raped us into their christianity but we or certain nations simplyattached variousAfrican gods and godesses tochristianangels as they have the same function and carried on practicing as ''christians''. Its also popular in places like Mexicoand other South American countries where you'dassume the people were devout christians butare simply veiling their real religion behind it to avoid suspision.
Your typical Blackall hype and funk church (Pentacostal?) where people dance and sway until they're possesed by the holy ghost... Flapping on the floor like fish calling for Jesus?
Voodoo.
Its exactly the same thing as is practicedall over the continent, south america and the carib drums beating calling onthis and that godflapping on the floor like a fish etc etc but Christianised.
The only diffrence is that the Christiansthink they're diffrent.
Takes more than a few whip lashings, lynchingsand torture to break a peoples religious beliefs. The Bantu/Zulu for example are selfless in that they belive that they are their ancestors, that their ancestors speak through them at any given time. Can't beat a 5000+ practice out of a people that belive in something as strong as that.
The South American Capueira comes from the same place Breakdancing did and is an African martial art. This is one of my theories but I swear it relates to Yoga, diffrent positions and all that.

I know that you are African and you want desperately to show some sort of CONNECTION to all the people with African blood all over the world, but right now you're trying to squeeze blood out of a turnip.
I think its a VERY FAR STRETCH to claim anyone who gets emotional during a religious service is "practicing voodoo in disguise".Paying tides for example is part of most Christian churches, however because Muslims also believe in this would not make me a "Muslim" person in disguise! Religious practice often overlap one another, however TRUE believers in any religion believe in THEIR ONE GOD.
