Well, I would say Hinduism and Shintoism are pagan religions.

Ah, I understand. I didn't know Macumba was a specific cult, though - not straight-cut paganism in an ethnocentric sense. Have you ever seen the music video for Sepultura's Ratamahatta? I've been intrigued by its imagery and references to folklore since I first saw it, but I don't know which culture or religion to which they many images refer. Is Candomblé that culture?

Personally, I've wanted to know more about the notion of zombies from a very young age. I have a rough idea of its etymological origins, and that Macumba and Vodoun both carry some belief in the idea. Does Candomblé?

I hope you don't mind my questions.
