I understand everything you said but the reason I enphasize on the fear of superstition is because I personally feel that it is cripling us.

I am not just talking on the political sense, Tiba's comment only triggered my comment.

We, as Haitians are always affraid that some supernatural thing is going to happen to us.

I simply believe that a big part of it is ignorance and we have to move beyond it.

I am tired of hearing comments about Boco this and vodou that.

It's fear, we have to recognize it and we have to get rid of it.

When I was growing up in Haiti I used to hear all the time about lougarou.

I sweat to you, as soon as the zenglendos came to existence, everyone forgot if there was such a thing as lougarou because now they had a new fear.

Now it's kidnaping they fear.

we have to get rid of all our fears, the fear of supersition is at the core of our problems as Haitians.

Am I wrong for thinking that?
