As a devotee, this video gave some helpful insight into how it is in Mexico, and for the cult of the cartels. Devotion is very different and this was very insightful And for anybody wondering why I’m a devotee, I feared death after my mother was murdered. The only way to no longer fear death, was to face her and feel comfortable with her.

[@myp0h]

My friend death can not help you. Jesus who gives life is the only one who can help. Is like saying - i will worship cancer for my anxieties about dying from cancer to go away. Shouldn't you rather respect medications & chemo? Go to God, read the bible and go to a proper church, then when you encounter God you can be free.

[@RedDragonTat]

@@myp0h yeah, Jesus didn’t do anything for me while I prayed to get my sister to stop molesting me. But as someone who was raised catholic I found comfort in a way that works for me, respectfully do not push the Christian agenda onto me. That would’ve been up to me to find Christ. Not for people to shove Christ onto me 🙏🏽

[@myp0h]

@@RedDragonTat i am very sorry for your bad experiences... this world is full of evil. But can I ask, what did santa muerte do to stop your sister from molesting you? And Why blame on Jesus? Why didnt you go to authorities? Jesus has healed many people in crisis situations. I encourage you that when your experiences do not match the outcome of what jesus promises, do not walk away from him but try to find the error and dealing with it. Turning to other religions so you can feel good and do what pleases you does not bring answers, it only makes us feel good to live our own life as we wish. But thats not what God made us to live.

[@RedDragonTat]

@@myp0h I really do not mind having this conversation but if you do go back to my original comment you would see why I began to pray to La Santa muerte in the first place. I would re read what you typed out in your final paragraph, who are you to judge me, the way I am to judge you? Let that sit for a minute, for all we know who’s god came first? Allah? Buddha? Any other form of god from different religions How do we know whom is the real one, and whom is a retelling of another cultures story? Now that’s a genuine conversation catholic school failed to answer me.

[@myp0h]

@@RedDragonTat i see what you are saying and understand that God is a spirit therefore we cannot tangibly show him and say here is the prove. However by comparing historic facts, testemonies, and the teachings of religious manuscripts one can easily see that the Bible is supernatural and truely from heaven. Catholic Schools may not do a good job at teaching this but there are former atheist who have turned to follow Christ by researching this subject; eg, Lee strobel - A Case fo Christ. Catholicism and the Church - in general - has failed the world in many aspects because they are running an instirution without God. People don't need religion. We need to encounter the God who created us then we can know that jesus is the only way to true LIFE. SO How do you we know? Buddah - is a man made religion that that arose from a prince that wanted to make sense of life and suffering. It a result of someones ideas and thoughts on cristianity and hinduism, etc.. Allah (ISLAM) AROSE 300 yrs after Jesus died and rose and went to heaven. Allah is a Muslim's perspective of Yaweh the God of the bible & (Judaism). However mohamed poluted the true character of God and mixed it with his own ideology (just like buddah and many religions). In all honesty.. God has revealed himself, and to prove it he fave future prophesies of future events before they happened so people will know that what was in the bible is true. Things like the rising of empires, jesus being born by a virgin, the destruction and exile of israel, the war and evil that we conti ue to increase in the current days we live in, and beyond us there will be antichrists people, the rise of lgqbt movements, evil people, wars and persecutions and in the end Jesus will come back to judge the whole world. We know the bible is true because we can comfirm historical events by its prophesies. What othe religious book, teaching has been able to make such accurate predictions? All other religions just tell you to live and be a good person. They dont show you who your creator is. God has revealed his main attributes in the bible and wants to relate to us. But he also dands that we stick to his laws inorder to live under his blessings. There lies the issue with humanity, we all want to live our own lives so we make up our own philosophies, religious dieties, and theories to deaden the conscience which is always prompting us to God.

[@custardsoup]

Something i heard from a santa muerte devotee that really stuck with me was "At what point does praying to a saint and creating an alter to a saint the same as being a devotee? We both ask for healing or protection, we both flam before the knees of christ." Ive never been a religious person nor am i opposed to believing in a god but this made me really think about the conflicts within a religion.

The Santa Muerte belief reminds me of The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. It’s important to live every day like it’s your last. Death is simply like a transformation, and knowing this taught me to be really grateful when times were difficult. My grandpa has a booklet on a Catholic prayer for la Santa Muerte. It’s something you do several times a day, and it surprised me how religious and official the pamphlet was. I was surprised; at first glance worshipping death looked like some Satanic black magic destructo-cult or something. Nope, The Catholic Church has this with them somehow too.

[@davidbryanttrucking]

When a group like the Romans attempts to absorb entire cultures, this is what happens. Celtic religious fusion art mixes Celtic tribal symbolism using Christian iconography like a palimpsest. Santa muerta seems like the preservation of the significance of a Doula. Basically a tribes medicine women/ mid-wife. She's not the grim reaper. She's more like mother nature. Jordan Peterson would describe this version as the devouring mother. A mother who loves you no matter what you do so long as you adore her above all other's. The sacred feminine is already occulted inside of Catholicism, but they valued the submission nurturing aspects of that, where as the tribal versions appreciate the duality of nature version which can also feel cruel and unforgiving. Most people in Western societies haven't had to suffer the elements and live outside in so long they forget until there's a natural disaster that we are primal animal's, and that tribalism is a means to survive in an unforgiving world. They know that makes sense but they have no actual sense of what it means. Mexican culture in general treats all of their deceased relatives with the same reverence as a Catholic would any of the saints. The day of the dead is part of that celebration. If I had to guess as to what the significance of the cartel's not leaving a body for the family to bury is on a cultural level it's to emphasize their control over your life and death, eternally. That hits different in Mexican culture than it does in the states where we've had milk carton kid's for decades and the general population could seemingly care less. In some tribal cultures when a family member dies, they are basically mummified and brought home to be available for everyone to be able to come and speak with them and air out their grievances for weeks, months, how ever long it takes for everyone to feel like they have let go all of their negative emotions related to the person's memory, before they are given a burial. That way when they talk about that person in their stories within their tribe there is only positive things said and that person can rest peacefully in the afterlife. Sante Muerta by itself isn't a bad thing... Just like any religion or belief system, corrupt people will use it to influence believer's to their own ends. The Catholic Church is a perfect example of that. They allegedly no longer offer indulgences as part of their religion... But all the scandals they've had with the priesthood and how they handled that, would indicate otherwise. You can give a psychopath or a megalomaniac any set of tools and they will figure out the best way to use it to control their victims. That isn't the belief systems fault, it's an aspect of humanity. Some people's religion is politics. Arguably the most successful religion in western society. Politicians are frequently treated like saints and worshipped enjoying life time appointments like a priest, who gets paid better. 😬 I don't know how many people here have seen the video of a female human trafficker for the cartel acting like she was possessed by what the unaware would characterize as a demon. But what I saw in that video was a female using the fear of the potential eternal damnation as prescribed within the beliefs I just typed about, as an additional means of control of groups of migrants who would out number the smugglers 10 to one. You need more than the threat of physical violence to control a group of people under duress like that or they'd just turn on their smugglers. She's like the undertaker, not the literal one, the pro wrestler. Some people know pro wrestling is an act but enjoy it anyway, some people believe it's 100% real. Either way both know that the violence and threat of physical harm is absolutely real. It's that little extra control over the world view that gives those smugglers an advantage when dealing with a large group of migrants. It's just an observation, take it or leave it. But if you're paying attention we have the same problems here, where two people tried to shoot a former president in less than a month, and the people currently in control of the executive branch did seemingly nothing to mitigate the problem until the majority of people agreed that was wrong, regardless of their political beliefs. The part of the that group of migrants who are genuinely afraid of spiritual consequences for betraying their captures makes them just as likely to go after a member of the group who is trying to organize a mutiny as the smugglers themselves. Kinda like Stockholm syndrome, but different. 🤔

Another zoom call on an even smaller TV again. I can't do it.

[@raul9937]

The interview view a TV that’s frame in smaller really sucks. Whoever made that creative decision, please don’t do it again it’s really distracting. I understand the video quality is low, it’s okay, we’d rather deal with that.

*Azrael = AngelIfDeath aka The 1st Born* The One who smoked Egypt. Notorious SantaMuerte The Black Maria, the Mother. The feminine, caring side of death. Death and its agency come in many forms. So real & so felt. Ppl talk of their bones & teeth sweating, buzzing when she enters the zone. To the Bone!

[@ChiNya-f3x]

BS dont talk about what you don't know

[@I_am_ka]

@@ChiNya-f3x Read the 22 Books Of The ZOHAR. Then come at me! Read the full annotated versions of The Book Of Enoch to get the Macro in general. I could take it deeper but your lifestyle would have to succumb to or derive from mercenary work, contract killing, sacrificial sanctum, santairia and the glibal networks associated. If your ABOUT that life, you wouldve never commented in the 1st place 4 angels? Zohar states AzraEL was the 1st Born before ALL the Angels, Read the Zohar

[@ChiNya-f3x]

@I_am_ka Azrael is one of 4 Angels you don't know what your talking about

[@I_am_ka]

@@ChiNya-f3x in the Zohar it explains/written AzraEL is The Angel Of Death known as *The 1st Born Angel before ALL the Angels* In the Bible it explains/written that The Angel Of Death was sent to take all the 1st borns of Egypt. This Angel of Death is its own Dominion, Principalitity & Throne meaning AzraEL is His own Agency w/ host under the Creator. That agency's host are seen in many forms, reapers etc. Read the Zohar.

Santa Muerte and the cult followers of this saint are not accepted or condoned by the Roman Catholic Church. We Roman Catholics don't worship any saints including the Blessed Mother, St. Mary. We ask them to intercede for us to pray to God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for us. The saints are human beings, they are not God. This is a common false belief of mostly non-Roman Catholic people that we Catholics are praying to the saints as God. They [saints] are intercessors for us, not God, because they were human beings, including the Blessed Mother, the human mother of God, Jesus Christ. Who better to ask for intercession to Jesus than His human mother, the Blessed Mother of God, St. Mary?

[@williamrosales5718]

"we love death. The 🇺🇸 loves life. That is the difference between us two" Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb yeshua. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our deaths. Ooh ra.

[@erikescobar6616]

I wouldn’t go that far. The US loves money and will do anything to get to it. We got plenty of blood on our hands and we are no better than these people just hide it better and have others do our bidding

[@tracyjohnson3496]

The Papacy doesn't follow The Holy Bible either.

[@felixuchies4688]

Best way to put it, is it's a deity of earthly desires. God exists in his heavenly realm, created our realm and gave us life then returned to his heavenly realm, only returning to our realm to open the the doors and teach us how to join him. Death does not exist in the heavenly realm thus is not a heavenly being. Death is an earthly being, from the days when people worshipped the earth and its natural forces. Death looks like the skeleton of an earthly human, but it represents something inbetween. Since it is an earthly deity they can pray to it for their earthly desires, where God will not help them. Their entire lifestyle goes against God but they have religious upbringings so they replace God with a god of esrthly pleasures and desires. You give death the same thing you want, power on esrth. Its a language they understand. They can't understand living an honorable life and one day when they reach the finish line having everything. the belief is God set the clock in motion and death as the referee/timekeeper and folks can choose to bribe the referee here on earth but when your time is up your time is up regardless and playing dirty for earthly desires is trading heaven for heaven on earth

[@Fight-t4b]

1.)The small tv is freaking annoying especially watching on a phone, who tf is tryna squint while watching KZbin? Not me tf fix that . 2.) SANTA MUERTE IS NOT A CULT ITS A SPIRITUAL PRACTICE!!! 3.)Each devotee of hers works with her differently just like there’s good and bad in any other religion/ belief /race. 4.)Cartel doesn’t JUST work with Santa muerte they also do voodoo and other practices. 5.) Catholics stole paganism now known as witchcraft practices 6.)Those who are saying it’s a cult, how do you explain that Jesus died and can back from the dead 3 days after dying how is that not magic or some type of witchcraft to you? Something especially a person literally died and came back to life?!? Tf. 7.) AGAIN those who are saying it’s a cult how do you explain yall drinking wine to represent his blood ? Blood involved in a practice is so cult like. 8.)She doesn’t take the things she blessed you with back UNLESS you do not fulfill your promises as you can’t expect to get things for free without having to do something in return , simply gifting her roses or tobacco would do because it’s the thought that’s counts. DO MORE RESEARCH BEFORE TALKING ON SOMETHING YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT . Respect others religion/ beliefs in order to get respect with your religion or belief.
