Voodoo Lecture

I found the Voodoo lecture the other night to be very interesting. Even though I am from New Orleans, I know very little about Voodoo other than what tourists see in the French Quarter. What I found interesting was how Voodoo is passed down through families. Unlike other religions that attempt to spread their beliefs and practices, Voodoo practitioners seem content to keep their beliefs within the family, which says a lot about how they view truth. The speaker seemed comfortable admitting that while he believes wholeheartedly in his religion, others may find truth in other beliefs or religions.
