Why we do not use Fula (gun powder) with the Matende (Machete)

Why we do not use Fula (gun powder) with the Matende (Machete)

Maybe a lot of people do this because the have seen someone do it, all the things that you swear to in this religion has a reason behind it. In the old days there was no Fula (gun powder) and our ancestors used to work their Ngangas, I wan to be clear, so those out there that like to put double meaning on things! I’m going to talk about that famous piece of wood (table) that were made from the bark of trees, and because times change and things get better later became the Katiyembe, with a mixture of mud and sap, that a lot of people know as Porron.

All of these so called Tatas are Tatas of hate initiated without any knowledge, they do not know the Matende (the machete) is the hangman of this sacred religion and before it we swear. I have also heard of fathers and mothers (arreando) working with the machete, what a lack of respect of those stupid Padrinos (godfathers).

They do not even know the meaning of the Matende Banamipello, or are they playing ignorant! If they do not know then learn! Everything in this religion is treaties and not lies. So for those that do not like it, you have my email so I can clear any doubts any of you might have.

Do not try to make of this religion a modern thing.
