"It is certain elements of Christianity- of the evangelical/pentecostal persuasion who have fought against not only the ancestralists, but us Rastafarians, Muslims, Jews, and also the different Christian denominations."
It is slightly ironic because some of the evangelist/pentecostal churches adopt ancestralist styles in their services, for example, very enthusiastic dancing and singing, and acting as though they are "possessed" by the "Holy Spirit". How do ancestralists reply to evangelical criticism?
