Santeria is a very specific religion that certainly works with the Orisha and the Loa, like voodoo, but also usually includes the Catholic saints. She may be a practioner of Vodou, Hoodoo, or some other flavor of Voodoo, and may not have any beliefs related to Catholicism. In fact, from what I heard her say, she does indeed seem to work with the Orisha, but may not even work with the Loa at all.Unless you know something more about her, I don't think you should insist that she practices Santeria.And agreed, Voodoo is certainly a valid religion. Not one that I practice, but certainly not some tiny offshoot of fake weirdness that it tends to be considered.</blockquote>
