Haven’t read it in awhile but Tell My Horse was one of my favorites back in undergrad.

History bro.

Back and forth Catholic.
Do you think that voodoo is based on Protestant saints?
Maybe you should read this classic. https://www.amazon.com/Tell-My-Horse-Voodoo-Jamaica/dp/0061695130
Or you can start with this basic article. https://www.catholicsandcultures.org/jamaica/obeah-duppies-spirit-world
I wonder why they have so many detailed subsections under Jamaica?
''Jamaica’s Obeah has a similar belief system and is widely practiced in rural areas as a form of sympathetic magic, despite the fact that a British-made law from the late 19th century means Obeah is actually illegal.''

Thus the ''mostly protestant'' bullshit numbers. Obeah [African Catholicism] rules the Island.
