The notion of witchcraft – seriously whats up with that? In Botswana (and most of Africa as well i think) it is very much widely beleived gore if someone has bad luck he/she has been bewitched…so what? there is no such thing as bad luck? Pick this – someone is a student doing his final year at high school, now, instead of listening in class and reading his notes he beleives that he can just go to a witch doctor and he will pass the exams – you gotta be fucking kidding me – someone smears some black stuff on you and cuts you with a razor blade (probably infecting you too, batho ga ba tshabe AIDS waitse) and u beleive you will pass? You ask someone how do you know this really works – you will always get the same answer “I KNOW IT DOES” But how do you know? Well, so if this does really work and witchcraft can secure you a job why the god damn fuck are you sitting here not working – where is your next meal coming from? Yeah, and they will always tell you that these wizards can not enrich themselves – but they can enrich you – hmmm, lemme get this right – why are you not rich then? “They” can make it rain, for fuck’s sake this heat wave is killing us why are they not making it rain – do they enjoy seeing our livestock perishing? Your furniture is stolen – its worth 500 bucks, you pay 2000 bucks to a witchdoctor coz you wanna recover it – i mean even ifthis crap did work does that make sense? you spent way to much…might as well have spent the 2000 to buy new furniture and you would have saved 1500.
See here is my plan of getting rich – i go to school i become an engineer i work 5 days a week and i get paid, if this is not enough for me i plan o starting my own business as well. Now i know this is going to work – i am getting paid every month but i have never been to a wich doctor my entire life…
So if you believe in witchcraft – whats the plan ? you go to the doctor and then you just chilll and wait for the money to start rolling in? How does it work - it rains money inside your house?
Whatever i say i know i can never convince someone this witchcraft business is bullcrap! i just dont get it, how did it start? A whole nation brainwashed…
An Enigma…
