I recently posted a thread on someone who encourages these beliefs. Apparently the superstitious beliefs about witches are mixing with Pentecostalism and producing a well funded (for Africa) horror story. Helen Ukpabio is one of these people. She will be coming to Houston to "preach" on the 14th - 25th 2012. A protest is being organized but I don't know the specifics. This is some really serious shit because when these people "preach" they manipulate people into donating to their "ministry". The funds will (after Helen U. takes her share) go to finance horrors in Africa. Anyone in the area really needs to stand against this and cut this funding to Nigeria. If a protest really gets organized please attend. I'm planning to attend.
For those not able to attend a protest there is a charity to help the victims of those who have been accused of witchcraft. I'll post the link.
Also I was wondering if it was possible to start some sort of letter writing campaign. Does anyone know how to do this effectively? I.e. who should be written to, and how to organize people to do this?
Here's the link to the charity: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/fundrais...Team=false
From what I understand there is a money conversion issue from American dollars to the British pound. I could be wrong about this.
Furthermore I was thinking about doing some sort of campaign on Facebook. Does anyone know how to do this?
On another note, I am very sick right now so if my writing appears very disjointed please understand that I am under a "cold haze" right now. I'm sick as a dog. I'm not possessed by a demon mind you so no deliverance will be necessary, though I'm thinking about Chinese delivery. A container of egg drop soup in this case (it's great for a cold).
Anyway here's the links for Helen U the witch hunter.

I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise
