I just don't get humans, I can present people facts & yet they don't believe but if you instill since birth myths as truth they will never question them. So today I had like about a 3 hour debate with my mother on evolution, god & everything in between. My main concern is how "religion" affects her mind & affects others Dominican. I showed my mother different pictures on emerging universes as proof & her response is "anybody can do that on PC" but I diss Adam & Eve and I get called an "atheist". Since I don't just want to pick on Catholics, what is up with Dominicans who belief in this voodoo crap opps I mean "Santeria", how can a person believe that a flower will bring them luck or fortune, thank god nobody in my family (that I know of) practice this crap. I know alot of posters are married to Dominicans or live in DR, how has this "cultural" difference affect your perspective & adaptively to Dominican culture?
Peace,

P. S. I am not dissing Catholics or you people you believe in Voodoo, I am just saying not everything is super natural there are scientific explanations for some events. For example you did not get fired because a jealous co-worker wanted your job & put a spell on you, it was because your lazy. You did not get sick because your stepmother hates your guts & went to see your witch, it's because you haven't been to the doctor in over 10 years, you're bound to get ill one day. And finally you're wife didn't leave you because of spells or witches it's because you're bad in the sack. Dominicans don't understand simple logic there is always something behind the scene, an invisible hand aranoid:.
