Ever Wonder If ‘Voodoo’ Is Real?

You’ve heard about it in stories and scene it in numerous movies, but is there really such thing as Voodoo? I tell you, there have been times in my life where I wish I had a Voodoo doll and could make people do things that I wanted them to do or even hurt them. These days I know that people will get what they deserve and I’m a much more firm believer in Karma as opposed to Voodoo, but there is always that question. Is voodoo real? Hot medical news has a great article about voodoo. Check it out.

Can a person die as a result of a voodoo curse? Yes, absolutely.   Reliable observers have reported many such cases.  The suddenness of these deaths in previously healthy persons without any apparent injury, poisons, or infection suggests that death from extreme fright or fear is possible.  “Curse” deaths have occurred immediately after a curse or several months later.  Of course, the victim must know or suspect that he has been cursed and must believe that the curse will cause harm.   Research about this type of death and about the effects of the nervous system on the heart has given rise to an area of medical knowledge called neurocardiology which is relevant to many important diseases.

    You know, Scott, I have an entire category over at Mental Health Notes dedicated to “Anger.” Just, you know, throwing that out there.

    :P

    yeah…those were the military days when I had to deal with all sorts of stupid people with a lot of rank and very little brain capacity…
