Even if 80% of the population are catholics, a significant percentage within that 80% catholic population also practice voodoo. You cannot concurrently worship God and the devil, no way. Let's call a spade a spade.

Since you're inferring here that the 80 - 20 statistical split is intertwined, what discernable explication would you proffer as to why God (our Just, Kind, Righteous, enevolent, Merciful ruler) would usurp the lives of choiceless infants incapable of distinguishing right from wrong, and the lives of the many purely-christian citizens occupying that similar region as the voodooists?

We have seen how the practice of voodoo can impede the progress of communities such as Abeokuta, Ijebu-Ode, Ifon, and the likes. Instead of bettering yourself, the evil mindset which underlies the practice of voodoo militates towards harming your fellow brethren.

Kindly explain how voodooism is responsible for the impedance of the progress of those communities?  Corruption, underdevlopment, and misappropriation of funds could be equally responsible for the abjection and rampancy of poverty in those locations.  Why should we believe Voodoo is responsible and not those other veritable sources?

It would be better to desist from making those inconclusive averments,  at least until you bridge the gap between voodooism, poverty and evil.  Like I opined earlier, there are nefarious christians whose proclivity for evil, destruction, morbid wickedness is demonstrated by their extremism .  Is their interpretation of the bible insignificant or intangible when compared to yours, and why shouldn't you be punished for their atrocities like those innocent individuals whose lives have perished from this disaster?

As a christian, I will never sanction the practice of voodoo, but I am not the one to judge whether there is a correlation between the practice of voodoo and the recent disaster plagued Haiti, as well as three Hurricanes that happened last year. Only God knows, but, again, nothing good can arise out of the practice of voodoo.

this link may put things in perspective.

This I can acquiesce to.

LOL     maybe her vision of beauty has been distorted.

When you've been exposed to a plethora of worwor citizens, it would behoove you to think they're pretty
otherwise, you won't score any date(s) or land a wife by being too picky  

WE gotta make do with what we have

Thanx to Senegal for at least saving our face. Many counries in the world have been contributing and assistin . . . . but . . none from Africa.

Wow! See how you contradict yourself?  I hope you do faintly realize, even if in the slightest bit, that Senegal is situated on the continent of Africa. 

If you consider succor in form of guaranteed stay in a somewhat functional, orderly country to be insignificant, then I don't know what qualifies as aid in your book.  I would think it trumps flocking back to an abject economy that's currently in a quagmire.


Moreover, there's a link floating around here somewhere that summarizes the contributions made thus far by some countries in Africa.

Dr Know and elecktra,

You guys have derailed this thread beyond repair with your piffles.

The level of profanity in both your posts are astounding and mind-boggling.

Were armies present to shoot the homosexuality out of them and were doctors on standby with defibrilators to zap them free of their homosexuality

@OP You've been ingesting too much cheap crack. Better lay off it!

That perfect man is in your subconscious, lass. It's all in your mind.

It's true conscience does make cowards of us all .


Fully educated, huh? Not half?

You must have envisaged getting married to the bionic man itself.


What qualities do you possess or exude that qualify you for a man of perfect character ?

It's an early-start on disses today, huh guys smh

Voodoo is pervasive in Haiti and, as such, nothing good can arise out of the practice of voodoo.

Evil is pervasive in all nations, as such, nothing good can arise out of all nations . . . . does that logic make sound sense to you?   That assertion fails to establish a nexus between wrongdoing and voodooism. It's a religion to them, just as christianity is a religion to you, islam, etc. There are nefarious christians as there are nefarious voodoo-practitioners.

If for the sake of argument we drag on your reply. . . From reports, 80% of their entire populace are catholic. Should the sliver of voodoo practiced by the minority override the 80% who in your opinion are practitioners of the more commendable religion? And how is that justifiable?

money is my whhore.

Kobojunkie:
That was no spin, I simply pointed made that statement cause it was possible she was being asked of that. I had someone ask me if I spoke afrikaans since I mentioned I was taking a trip to SA.

Yes it was.  You perceived it to mean what it isn't.  She specifically said African.
A knowledged person would know that Africans speak more than one language.  Why would the individual automatically ask if she speaks "African" as if that language is peculiar to all Africans.  Why not Swahili? Yoruba? Igbo?

bluespice:
good you were taking a trip to SA
i indicated i was african
see the difference?
pls try not to defend the person, he was very very ignorant. So many people have no idea what parts of the world look like. don't get me started on those that argue with me about countries i've lived in.

Maybe she hasn't been exposed to the glut of ignorance exuded by these people we speak of.


Especially Mandingo's African Americans! A pathetic bunch.

Kobojunkie:
Afrikaans is an language

Don't put a spin on it!
The ignoramuses asking those uninformed questions are unaware of the existence of any such variations, and as such, cannot make the distinctions you just implied.

omg rise and shine young lord

na wa o

since when did this provision of aid magnify into a competition to crown the world's most generous nation

we are fond of concerning ourselves with trivial issues jere.

All i know is, the media has done a laudable job presenting and bringing this news into our own homes.

Regardless of david's personal and qualifiable introspective mood, those Haitians did not beg to be robbed of their lives and their homes. And we obviously shouldn't resign our altruistic provision of succor to these displaced Haitians, who have been forced to suffer en-masse because of this disaster. Help in any way you can.
