.etc., see the beginning of the thread for the entire post. So now
that the Lave Tet ceremony has taken place I have put some photos
online, and as I was getting ready to post the location of the photos,
I noticed these silly responses.
Two fellows choose to reveal their ignorance, I guess, because they
comment:

"Performing a ceremony" does not mean "presenting a stage play", I am
surprised that your vocabulary is so limited since you have so many
negative things to say. I was truly surprised, actually, to see this
junk from two supposedly "spiritual" fellows.

That depends on how many lwa come! The more the better. This is
Vodou, V-o-d-o-u, not some New Age threefold-law hocus pocus!

I am not sure what you are looking for, but I just spent the last ten
days with my Massachusetts house full of Roots Without End Society
members, friends, and Lave Tet Ceremony recipients. They can say I
need more beds, maybe, but they can't say anyone "fought" or "got
arrested", that's ridivculous.

YES, DO THAT. Do that, Sighris. Look up "Mambo Racine Sans Bout" and
"The VODOU Page" and every other link you can find because there are
literally hundreds, and you will find that I have been a United
Nations Human Rights Observer, a Reuters journalist, a production
assistant and videographer for ABCNews, a part of the pro-democracy
underground in Haiti during the Cedras junta, a political asylum
caseworker for the Geneva, Switzerland-based International
Organization for Migration... I've been the Coordinator of the Haitian
Health Institute at Boston Medical Center. I could go on and on,and
it's all online. I've been in Haiti since 1987! The things I've
seen, the times I've risked my life... you don't know who I am, you
don't know who you are talking to, Sighris..
In the meantime, On Mambo Racine's Vodou Forum (http://
groups.yahoo.com/group/Mambo_Racines_Vodou_Forum ) there are six
photos from the Lave Tet Ceremony, held July 26. And as you can
clearly see, no one is "fighting", there are no "arrests" being made,
no one has grown horns and fangs in broad daylight...
The photos are in the "Photos" section, of course, in an Album titled
2008 Lave Tet. The direct URL is:
