Vodou pa yon relijyon, tankou Hindouism pa yon relijyon, paske yo gen anpil similarite, byen ke yo sòti nan tradisyon ki diferan. E pi ou di ke ou pa wè benefis ki genyen nan pratik Vodou. Yon sistèm kwayans ki soutni de santèn milyon moun nan Amerik lan, mwen pa ta kwè yon moun ta oze di ke pa gen ...

Mwen te kwè nou te depase stad sou sit sa a; pou nou di ke Vodou pa relijyon. Li pa relijyon? Sa li ye? Alòs se mwayenoryan ki te gen eksklivizite pou yo kreye relijyon? Moun nan mwayenoryan yo te pi entelijan, ke rès moun sou tè an. Si w al fouye zo nan kalalou, ou gen dwa di okontrè. Ki sa Vodou g...

Yes indeed, this, among the most important of philosophers, had a language which the lowest of the chinese could comprehend. There was very little abstraction in his pronouncements. This was the reason western religion or any others, had a "devil" of a time having a solid foothold in China: His teac...

"Poukisa kretyen pè mouri" Sa se yon gwo koze, se yon bagay ke TAYI ak GELIN ki kretyen an rezidans sou sit sa a, ta ka ba nou yon ti limyè sou sa. Poukisa Pap lan, lè l ap vwayaje, li akonpaye ak bon doktè e tou yon lopital anbilan? Poukisa de moun kou PAT ROBERTSON ak JERRY FALWELL, lè yo malad, s...

I am confused. Didn't Europe know its darkest period of the last 1500 years, when the Christian Church was all powerful, omnipotent? Progress did start when Europeans started to question the tenets of Christianism, didn't it? And during the European dark ages, the keepers of knowledge (with the Chin...

Non Michel, Mwen pa di ke Afriken yo pat gen wòl nan devlopman lang kreyòl lan non? Sa mwen vle di ke wòl afriken yo pat gen menm pwa nan devlòpman lang nan ke franse nan nòdwès la Frans yo.

I too am puzzled by this KAMINSKI attack on Jewish "zionism". Is he one of these new-wave crypto-fascists who utilize pseudo-scholarship to attack their old nemesis: the jews?

There is one "important" country which has escaped the vagaries of organized religions. It's China. For some reasons, organized religions, from east to west, were never able to establish a solid footing in China, no matter what their name: Boudhism, Islam, Christianity etc. An estimated 40 million p...

"There is no ceasefire in politics" You could have specified -haitian politics. And some of us will continue to agitate, in order to overthrow governments they don't like, and we'll continue with this chronic instability.

Erich René started against Préval already?

Whatever happened to the proverbial "grace period"?

Mark my words, six months from now JER is going to call for the overthrow of Préval.

Thank "God" he is like the flea in the famous La Fontaine fable "La Mouche de la Coche"...

Apharion, There has been a recrudescence of the slamming of Vaudou, particularly after Aristide had recognized this religion as one of the official religions of Haiti. All I am saying is, one has to be careful not to put grist in the mill of the critics of the religion, most of it is unwarranted. Fi...

Apharion, Human sacrifices are not part of Vodou rituals, they have never been. Are human sacrifices associated with the voodoo practiced in Cuba and Brezil? I have never heard such claims made; and believe me, the practices of Cuba and Bresil are much closer to the original African practices than a...

Wi monchè, E Guy Philippe ak konpayèl li yo. Eske nèg sa yo konnen kote yo gad?

Let's be serious. Why disseminate those skulls throughout the region of Port-au-Prince? I would think it would be simpler to dig a hole and bury them. Is the throwing of skulls part and parcel of a campaign by certain Haitian reactionnary forces, to unsettle, intimidate? And, please, don't associate...

Gelin,

Why not?
Even, if this question is rethorical.

Jonas

YEAH, RIGHT!

ADYE!

PREVAL has been doing fine so far.

I don't know if those decisions are his,or they are collegiate; boy, he is running rings around the "technocrats" and their allies.

The MAN is showing himself as a cagey, smart and very sharp politician!

Mwen gen de ti kesyon pou Gelin, kòm li sanble li konn bagay yo. Pwotestan nan legliz Pannkotis yo, lè lespri an monte yo, yo tonbe dyayi, yo pale langay (speaking in tongues, kòm meriken di l), eske se bon zanj ou sinon move zanj ki monte yo? Si pa gen distenksyon sa a nan legliz sa yo, poukisa gen...

This Documentary has received very good reviews in the New York Times, two days ago.

The reviewer qualified it as well researched, balanced so to let the viewer make up his or her own mind.

I don't think anybody can ask more than that.

There is only one word I can say, about this article.

WOW!

Gelin, Your Hindu priest friend believes there had been 10 incarnations of Krishna. It's just but one of the interpretations of the GITA. Some Hindus believe that there has been one Incarnation, some believe that Krishna has yet to come to Earth. Hinduism, recognized as the oldest "organized" religi...

Marcien,

Mwen pa p long.
W ap fè yon ti ekspoze sou Vodou; di m souple kisa Bèlzebit, Satan elatriye, vinn fè nan ti koze sa a.
Bèlzebit, Satan elatriye se patikilarite relijyon Mwayen Oryan yo, tankou Krisyanis ak Islam.

Se pa vre?

Tayi, These descriptions of the Trinitarian God can be found in the BHAGAVAD GITA, one of the sacred books of the Hindu religion.

PAT ROBERTSON is not some yahoo southern preacher; the man is a Yale educated lawyer. He knew exactly what he was saying and I dare to say, he succeeded in his aims. He framed the argument.
