What is the difference bewteen voodoo and witchcraft?

1.Voodoo has been legalised in some countries like haiti, does that go for witchcraft as well?2.Are they both evil practices that you feel should be abolished?3.Is voodoo, satanism and witchcraft the same? ------

Voodoo is a combination of native African religion and Catholicism. They even use the symbol of the cross for their own purposes. Voodoo has some magickal practices. I guess you could say that they use witchcraft. Witchcraft is a practice and not, by itself, a religion. Laws that prohibit witchcraft have been appealed (taken away) in just about every state in America and most of Europe. I do not think that either Voodoo or witchcraft is, by itself, evil. It can be used for evil purposes, but most often is not. Voodoo has it's own gods and none of them is Satan. Satanism either worships Satan (the Theistical Satanists) or uses him as a loose example of how strong, independant people should be. ------
