it’s not so much the witchcraft as that everyone still believes it exists. as long as people can blame magic, they can kill people for being witches. a lot of the accused witches, medieval period through today, were mentally ill. maybe that’s the connection? she also seems to be invoking the belief that a picture steals part of your soul. in which case, she would be a zombi (traditional sense).

diningi - depends where in Africa, and whom you ask. some people were genuinely excited about Christianity, and converted willingly. sometimes the mission schools were great. other times, people got screwed over. mixed bag.

Madonna DOES seem to do a lot of photoshoots posing with her legs apart…

that said, I agree with her on the Britney thing….it must be utter hell being mentally ill AND having an army of paps shadowing your every move while yelling either false compliments or abuse.

….and she is right; witchcraft (or magic, or juju) is a way of life in Africa much as it was in the west five or six hundred years ago

StoatBoat….you need a therapist for your anger problem

Actually in Africa people especially women are killed with stones and machetes with accusations of witchcraft…entire villages have been ethnically cleansed using withcraft as the excuse. Madge knows what she’s talking about…and you should read the news more. Chasing after someone and sending them ill will in order to get a photo is very negative…she’s just comparing negativity with negativity. WHether witchcraft is real is up for debate…but witch trials are stil rampant the world over in an effort to quelch women. Sad and True.

Madonna is so tired she might as well be in a coma. That ridiculous, self-important, fame-skewed quote proves just how irrelevant she is now. I used to think she was kind of cool, but both she and her music have become far too self-indulgent.

Also, her injection-altered face frightens small children and bunnies.

Stoatboat, really, wishing for God to strike someone dead is rather sick. And saying you wish they would kill themselves is sick-o. It really is.

I am not a huge Britney Spears fan, but I think you are far more messed up than she could ever be.

Do you think she’s secretly, convolutely calling Britney a witch?
