The blending of voodoo into Roman Catholicism is not merely at the parish level. It goes to the top and involves more than mere tolerance. Newspapers around the world carried the following story of the Pope encouraging voodoo priests to make a Constantine-like “conversion”:

“Pope John Paul II sought common ground with believers in voodoo Thursday, suggesting they would not betray their traditional faith by converting to Christianity. On the second day of his 10th African pilgrimage, the Pope held a dramatic and emotional meeting with priests of the vodun. … The Pope told the voodooists that just as they draw on their ancestors for their religion, so do Christians [Catholics] revere their ‘ancestors in the faith, from the Apostles to the missionaries. …’ Voodoo priests at the meeting warmly welcomed the pontiff.”
