My father died when he was a baby and was revived with Santeria (witchcraft) does that make me half human half demon?

[Anonymous]

I always felt like I unintentionally bring bad karma or misfortune into people’s life when they hurt me or do me dirty behind my back without moving a finger without actually seeking revenge bad things simply just happen to them or their family; meanwhile those whom I love deeply who treat me with kindness have abundance and good fortune; sometimes I also have this feeling that I don’t belong in this world and I can’t ever shake that feeling, it makes me wonder if I’m not of this world maybe I’m not really human I don't know 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve felt conflicted since childhood;

It’s not a troll it’s a genuine question; I thought maybe there would be spiritual people here who would know the answer; if I’m anonymous it’s because I’m aware that there are bad people out there who’d harm someone like me

Out of curiosity I fed your question to AI. This was the result:

Conclusion:
Unless you’re working within a very specific syncretic belief system that merges Santería with a concept of demonic lineage (uncommon), your father's revival wouldn’t make you "half-demon." It might, however, signify a powerful spiritual heritage or ancestral connection in Santería terms.

If this belief troubles you, speaking with a knowledgeable Santero/santería elder or a spiritual counselor could provide clarity tailored to your tradition. Would you like help finding resources on Santería’s views on life, death, and ancestry?

I understand. I just have no experience with Santeria or demon-hybrids.

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Have you spoken with a therapist? As much as all that might be true, it could also just be karma and have nothing to do with you

[Asker]

I have spoken to therapists but not about this topic because they couldn’t help me with spiritual things

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Maybe try a spiritual one? It’s my understanding that most religious leadership take some kind of counseling education

it makes you either delusional or a fan of ficton in my view. magic doen't evidently exist. people don't evidently return from the dead. I don't know what exactly they did but apparently it helped him not die or he as never gonna die to begin with. that's what probably happened not what you said. this isn't meant to offend. it's just what i think speaking matter of factually.

[genericname85]

maybe you've just been told that. fair enough. not blaming you for it. i just don't think it's true at all.

If it’s not real why does bad things always happen to people around me; their life is normal then once I become part of their life bad unusual things start happening to them, and also i noticed every job I go to is great and when I start working there everything starts going bad for the business and it becomes a toxic place to be in

[genericname85]

to me as an outsider looking in, i don't see the connection you made. to me "bad things happening to people around you" may be a true observation. i think it's unfortunate but not uncommon that bad things happen to people around everyone some times. and there may be a "correlation". there may be two things happening at the same time. like for example: you get with someone. then something bad happens to them. even if that observation is factually true and there is that correlation, i don't see the causation you're drawing. like things can happen at the same time and have nothing to do with each other right?

like have you quantititatively evaluated the number of times bad things happen in these peoples life generally? has the number of times bad things happen to them increased upon getting with you? and even if that is true, then there's still only correlation not causation.

i think you're trying to find a solution for a problem that you're seeing. but i don't see the problem you're seeing and the conclusion doesn't make sense to me.

[genericname85]

tl;dr: why do you think that you are the cause of these things happening?

[Asker]

I feel like I’m bad luck like I know people who were doing great before they met me and when they became friends with me a lot of misfortunes started happening in their lives this happened to every single person I’ve ever encountered and the moment I leave their life everything goes back to normalcy and good things happen in their life again

[genericname85]

Ok what you're saying now is realistic and non delusional to me. It may be a case of bad luck and I find that you trying to take responsibility is a good thing. But don't take responsibility for things that are not in your power and not your fault. Like if something bad happened to them by what mechanism did you cause that to happen? It's ok to feel bad for them. But don't take guilt if you're not at fault

Nice try, but no cigar this time.

This is absolutely giving troll, Abby. They anonymize this weird ass questions for a reason lmao if you saw their usual comments they’d be normal as fuck.

[Asker]

It’s not it was a genuine question that I’ve struggled with for years I wish it was a troll; no one understands how lonely it gets

[Asker]

@HollyK21 and I anonymized it because with tremendous power comes problems there are people who’d try to harm me for it

[DryGermanGuy]

He wasn't revived with witchcraft. It's not real.

No, Santeria is not related to demons.
