Default Is voodoo real or folklore?

I'm inclined to believe that it is a trip.

in things like that, they say its mind over matter, Lil. if you believe it, its real to you. if you dint, then its not real. reality is in the eye of the beholder, Lil.

Who do?

It's an amalgamation of Catholicism and African tribal religions.

All black magic and occult practices are real. At first, they seem harmless. But as you get into it, the spirits manifest themselves and are very real. The problem is they are deceiving spirits and they are only after one thing in the end which is the damnation of your soul.

Many people seriously live in fear of those who practice it.

Part of it is folklore part of it is "real"

Understand me here sometimes people can be healed by such ways. Psychological issues can be dealt with by as powerful an event that caused them you see.

So it is kinda like .. ancient time psychology! Shamans for instance understood the matters of psychological diseases way before we did. Their way how though differs, their cures to..

But usually it works..

I don't mess with the spirit world. I do think that there are some elements that are real and some that are just for the drama of it all. Either way, black magic, astrology and all things occult in nature are against God so I stay away. Basically anything that either originated in Babylonian mystery religion and paganism should be far from you as a Christian.

It CAN be real but most often it is probably bolstered by believing it is real. It is clearly condemned in scripture for a reason - it is demonic
