Black Spirituality Religion : MAMI WATA

I hope I can one day spray rum/water like this lol, for real.

While researching Mami Wata, did you ever come across a comment along the lines of this guy lived with a Mormon for a year, and discovered that they unknowingly worship Her? It made sense when one remembers that their founders have their roots in Scottish rite masonry, but that's just conjecture on my part.

Mormonism became a hybrid religion between Christianity (worship of the "Lamb") and gnostic Scottish Rite Masonry (worship of the "Serpent").

You know what carving I really want? it looks something like this:

The snakes issuing from the nostrils indicated clairvoyant powers relating to the 3rd eye or pineal gland which is located behind the nose. I think they are pretty amazing.
 
Sadly, I do not. Ill track that gentleman down and see if I can tease an answer out of him. I briefly converted to Mormonism when I was 16 lol (good times). They have some interesting beliefs - like swimming is not allowed because the Devil controls water.

Lol you should start a thread about that, I thought they didn't like black people?
