solniwko [45]

Answer:

1. Vodou, C. Haiti

2. Rastafa, B. Jamaica

3. Santeria, A. Cuba

1. Vodou, C. Haiti

  • Vodou is a religion that is mainly practiced in <em>Haiti. </em>Their Supreme diety is "Bondye." The deity is believed to have a lesser subordinate called "loa," the <u>spirits of the religion.</u> Loa acts as a mediator between Haitian people and Bondye. The term "vodou" shouldn't be replaced with the word "vodoo." The latter is said to have a bad image in the society and the world's culture, thus Haitian's avoid such word. According to this religion, <u><em>the body and the soul of people are tied together.</em></u>

2. Rastafa, B. Jamaica

  • This is a religion that prospered among the impoverished in Jamaica, an island in the C<em>aribbean Sea. </em>The practitioners under this religion are also known as "Rastafari" or "Rastas." They believe in one God, <u>"Jah,"</u> this is a short name for<em> "Yahweh."</em> They also believe that Jesus Christ is the reincarnation of Jah. Many of the practitioners belong to ethnic groups. According to this religion, <u>a person's understanding or intuition is the basis for validating a certain practice.</u>

3. Santeria, C. Cuba

  • Santeria is a religion that developed in Cuba, <em>a country located in the northern Caribbean.</em> This religion was highly influenced by Roman Catholicism, in terms of belief in "saints." It doesn't follow a system of beliefs. They mainly focus on their rituals and ceremonies, particularly for those people who want to become part of Santeria. Other than Cuba, the religion is also practiced in <em>Puerto Rico, Colombia, Panama and other Latin countries. </em>
