I picked up the local free paper yesterday, called Paru Vendu. It contains the usual range of small ads, from people trying to sell damaged rabbit hutches to pages and pages of gay phonesex lines. What caught my attention was the section dealing with faith healing and magic arts. There appeared to be no fundamental(ist?) difference between African animism and French Gallicanism when it came to claims of special powers. Indeed, these two ads were next to each other and offered exactly the same services. Professor Bambo sounds a lot more educated, though, whereas the Monseigneur sounds a wee bit menacing.
