                          Haitian Vodou is the syncretic result of African spiritual systems and Catholicism, basically _merging_ as a result of the transatlantic slave trade and travel to the new world.  Many Haitians who practice Vodou consider themselves Christian.

What does the Catholic church currently think of it?
