Voodoo? Who do? You do.
If this is the basis for hauling a religious practitioner into court for scamming people:
An alleged bogus faith healer accused of conning Black Country people out of thousands of pounds told a jury he has a gift passed down through generations.
Niem Mohammed sat on the floor of the courtroom at Wolverhampton Crown Court and assembled a miniature fire pit on top of a silver table surrounded by jars of spices to demonstrate techniques he uses to meditate and pray.
He also passed around scrolls, “talismans” and jewellery which he sends out as part of his work.
The jury heard how clients were given a host of instructions to follow themselves, including wearing the jewellery and talismans and dissolving the scrolls in water and drinking them.
Mohammed, a father-of-four from Wilmslow in Cheshire, denies the claims against him and said faith healing was something that had been in his family for decades.
...then I'm sure the Catholic church (or any church, for that matter) is next up for prosecution, right?
Right...?
