Default Do you believe in voodoo and zombies?

Is there really any proof this stuff is real or is it just a bunch of superstitious people wasting their lives away acting ignorant. I was told by a Haitian man that people in his country routinely turn into animals such as pigs and cows with voodoo powers. Do you believe this is possible?

I believe in Black Magic where it is possible to put a curse on someone but not that you can turn people into animals.
I don't believe in zombies either.

No, I do not believe in those. There's no evidence to prove that either, but don't underestimate the power of the thinking( positive/negative)- our minds can create unbelievable things.

I believe in voodoo.

And I think that certain chemicals and concoctions can cause people to act like zombies in those cultures.

Voodoo may be real but I'm not too sure with the whole zombies thing. Doesn't seem to be real to me.

okay, the zombie thing: SO NOT GETTING IT! my brother is afraid of them even though he doesn't believe in them ( he's 9 1/2). so here is a MSG to all the editsOtest there: ZOMBIES ARE NOT REAL! as for the voodoo thing, I'm not sure because i do believe in stuff like magic (black magic, etc.) but not the kind where he magician pulls a bunny out of his hat!

things like this are just silly old sores that some bored old guys made up because they had nothing better to do with their lives (and to scare their grandchildren probably). so now do we all understand!? (JFK)

No I don't believe in voodoo and zombies. Actually voodoo is a form of religion. You should actually read about it before you call the people who practice this ignorant. They may think the same about the way you worship.

I practice Vodou and I know it is a real religion. Do I believe in the zombie and people turning into animals ...... no! Those beliefs are common in the society those people live in. I live in the US and I was not raised to believe in such things, therefore for me it is not real. However, I have experienced many things in my practice of Vodou. The things that happen during service are nothing short of amazing. Check out a service yourself and you will know the truth and see for what the reality is.

Voodoo - yes. There is no such thing as Zombies....that is a myth proliferated by the movies. Don't believe everything you see on the big screen, or TV. Voodoo is a very interesting and historic practice. Do some research on your own at the library and you may be surprised at what you find.
