Summary "The Catholic World, Vol. 25, April 1877 to September 1877" by Various is a monthly magazine that presents a collection of articles covering general literature and science, written in the late 19th century. The volume features a diverse array of topics, including cultural commentary, religious discussions, poetry, and historical accounts reflective of the beliefs and societal challenges of the time. The opening of this volume introduces a detailed discussion on "Nagualism, Voodooism, and other forms of Crypto-Paganism in the United States." It explores the historical persistence of pagan practices among various cultures, including Native Americans and enslaved Africans, in the context of their interactions with Christianity. The text delves into the ways these ancient beliefs have subtly survived alongside established religions and how they manifest in secretive rituals, as well as societal consequences. The author reflects on the challenges faced by missionaries and the endurance of these pagan traditions despite efforts to eradicate them, hinting at broader themes of faith and spiritual conflict that are addressed throughout the volume.
