I mentioned nothing about race because this has nothing to DO with race!
....outside of the fact that many AfroAmericans seem to love aligning themselves with the most wicked and debased of habits and customs.
Although nearly every race has been enslaved at some point in time, AfroAmericans seem to take special offense to slavery and claim it as thier own beliving that only black people were meant to be slaves.
I did the same thing until I educated myself on the history of slavery in the world and found out more white folks had been enslaved through out history than us.
In that same spirit, although white Europeans practiced (and still do) practice witch-craft and paganism as well as magic; for some reason we seem to think this is "our" religion and want to claim it as African.
Monotheism in the form of Christianity swept across Europe much faster than it did in Africa and destroyed or ran underground most of the pagan practices and sorcery that dominated the continent and that's why you find more traditional paganistic practices still in AFrica.
It has nothing to do with us being more spiritual or in tune with nature.
Read about Diana the grand goddess of Europe.
Read about Wicca, and the Druids.
Read about Merlin the magician and other socerers of old Europe.
We need to stop trying to make excuses to revert back to paganism and idolatry.
Every black event I go to now you got people pouring out libations and calling on the ancestors....trying to resurrect those same practices back up again that got us in trouble the first time.
Stop trying to associate black people with wickness and idolatry.
