My learned egbon forget. Though I of course believe in the potency of science and the advancement technology has brought to us over the decades I can't argue against voodoo because I've indirectly experienced it. It exists boss though truly they are of course people who have mastered various phenomena to be able to bend it to their own will and instruction like some witch doctors. There might also be a thin line between it and science cause some of these scientific discoveries day by day look like I would say magic to most of us especially the illiterates or non exposed in Africa but as long as the spiritual realm exists, the other realm apart from our physical bodies I can't argue against it's existence boss especially in a lawless and somewhat backward country like ours where some tap into it to perform their various mischiefs.
Sometimes, I think that Africans overestimate the potency of juju.

If juju was indeed potent, I don't think the colonialists would have captured Oba Ovonramwen Nogbaisi, the then Oba of Benin.

I also know that the fire generation power of Sango, Yoruba god of thunder, was greatly overestimated as I have come to understand that Sango only used some little understandings of how to make fire to generate fire yet it was said that Sango had "a mouth that spewed fire when he spoke". In fact, folklore has it that Sango committed suicide after the humiliation he suffered when a subordinate challenged him with a better display of juju or whatever.

Some people also believe that juju can help with money ritual, but I say it authoritatively that if a money ritual seeking person kills all the people in his or her village or even the whole Africa, he or she can never be richer than Dang.ote let alone Bil.l Ga.tes.

Lols, I understand you clearly. I used to reason like this too when I was religious during my university days.

But life isn't like that. I didn't say voodoo doesn't exist. What I'm saying is, "voodoo" and "juju" are wrong terms.

It's mostly used by ignorant people. The correct term is "mysterious".

Underlying those mysterious feats people call voodoo, juju, spiritual, supernatural are some unknown laws of nature (unknown physics, chemistry, biology).

They're manifestations of some unexplained science generally.

About the spiritual realm, scientists will soon start demystifying that.

You see all those terms like dark matter, dark energy, etc., which you might have been seeing around in modern times, refer to aspects of what religious people call "spiritual realm", though most religious people and scientists don't know this at the moment.

Even many scientists doing research on dark matter and dark energy don't know.

In the native Yoruba culture, it's dark matter and dark energy our forefathers used to refer to when they use the term "weju" (meaning "being able to see the unseen realms" ).

Dark matter is simply matter that exists in the unseen realms, and dark energy is energy originating from the unseen realms.

I don't want to say much on the subject. These are not what to be discussed in detail on Nairaland because they're meant for the scientific community.

It's ignorant or mischievous people that call mysterious phenomena "voodoo", "juju".

If you know what you're talking about (unless you want your technique to remain a secret), you'd call it by its specific name.

For instance, if I know some codes to teleport, i.e. disappear (I'm sure you call this feat juju or voodoo in your area as many do in Yorubaland too), if I want to hide my knowledge from people, I'd just tell them it is "voodoo" or "juju".

But if I don't want to do this, I'd state the specific name of my stealth (or teleportation) technology.

Does it involve hiding in certain segments of the electromagnetic (EM) spectrum (the popular technique of our ancestors and forebears called ofe in Yoruba and similar terms in the other cultures around)? So that stealth technology is EM-based.

There's no juju or voodoo here.

Does the technique work based on the use of an invisibility cloak? Again, people are working on this, and breakthroughs will be achieved in the coming years.

No juju here as well. When I hear the word juju or voodoo, I just say to myself that it's either this person using it is ignorant (which is the case for most people) or is being secretive.

The fooolish man is talking as if the taxpayers don't deserve to be informed on what their tax is being spent on in this dire period.

If these people have their way, they will just be allocating wahtever they want to themselves without media prying their eyes into it.

A001, you may be on to something. It is a well known fact that the priests of ancient Egypt sentenced a man to death for exposing the secrets of papyrus manufacturing to outsiders. The ancient world was full of such cautionary tales and allegories —the agony of Prometheus, the garden of Eden and the tree of knowledge of good and evil

The ancient Egyptians most probably figured out how to harness electricity and create devices capable of capacitance but such knowledge was only revealed to the initiates of the priestly class and for the rest, it was regarded as magical abilities

However until everything is replicable in a controlled environment, it is all theoretical conjecture

Cricket is very popular in your country now and it has some similarities with baseball, just the same way American football borrowed some concepts from Rugby. That means you don't like cricket boss?

That was a common practice in other relatively developed parts of Africa and even other relatively developed parts of the world as well at various times in the past. It wasn't limited to just ancient Egypt.

It's one of their ways of protecting their knowledge from being stolen and misused in ancient times.

However, such a practice has its downsides (like what we've been witnessing today about the way people use words like "juju", "voodoo" ignorantly).

In modern times, we use technology (different software programs and the likes) and various laws to do this (intellectual property protection), such as encryption techs, various intellectual property (IP) laws, and the likes.

All these have their downsides as well.

About the replication aspect, research work in science is done in stages and follows specific, well-laid-down protocols.

What I stated in that post are in the theoretical stage. However, for some thinkers, once you see the physics and math for something, and those are sound and logical, its applications (the techs to be built from the physics and math) are just around the corner, especially if such applications had already been developed in the past (extinct) eras.

What then remains is for many smart people to brainstorm and come up with ways to apply the knowledge in building technologies.

So, personally, I'm not even bothered about things like conjecture, etc. because some of the applications are things I use for my own personal activities.

GrammarNazi1 and A001 I agree with several of your points especially when A001 talked about some enlightened ones who use codes tap into the metaphysical. We see it in form of incantations and spells in our locality. Where I'm coming from is I believe there are spirits that most times influence the activities of some of these happenings once their "codes" are spoken or written out. I have seen a popular guy in my area few years back suddenly come out of his jeep, stripped himself naked and was dancing around. This was someone who threw a party the day before though the rumours going around were somebody sent him a spiritual bullet cause we knew him as a g boy. This one even cashed out self.
What of where I worked in my teens where a cult clash happened. The victim who was also a dangerous cultist too was shot with several bullets but it didn't penetrate him which made the rivals switch to cutlass and sharp iron which made him later hospitalized with fatal injuries because they thought they killed him. This one is not lies, I worked with the junior brother and everyone who was present at that time confirmed it cause I was sent by my boss to print something for him at that time. I also have like two but I can't share all here.
I'm not doubting the fact that enlightened people can tap into the metaphysical to bend existing phenomena to their favour but I also know there are spirits we can't see that also give powers for these sort of things to happen. That's why in my place there's a popular saying that where another man juju end, na where another man own begin.

Okay, when people are discussing science in the theoretical stage, or even if it's established science, it's always good to research and think critically about things yourself because even in what's called established science, there are many wrong ideas (limitations), faulty assumptions, and the likes.

It was some of such limitations (wrong ideas) that great thinkers like Newton, Einstein, Dirac, Schrodinger, and the likes discovered and improved further in the established science of their time to develop a new science.

And this allowed them to write their names on the sands of time.
