Voodoo I have been practicing voodoo for quiet a while, about 4 years now, and i know that all of my friends know about my spirituality. but there are a lot of stupid people were i live. Even though i have a lot of friends, and they all know, some of them are kinda nervous to be around me, because some people said that i was going to hex them or some nonsense like that.
i knwo i should explain my faith, but i just dont when the best time is, or if i even should at all

Human beings are insecure and fearful, especially when it comes to the question of death. That is why they come up with garbage like religion to comfort them. People are also herd animals and tend to be nervous about anything their immediate circle isn't into because it carries them out of their comfort zone. So just look at it as their problem and not yours. Because it is. ]
There will always be some sort of stigma attatched to you because of your religion. Whether we like it or not there are many ignorant and close minded people in all communities. That, unfortunately, won't change.
The people who are mocking you and/or your religion are clearly not worth the trouble. People like that don't even make the effort to understand something. This is even more unacceptable when they don;t make the effort for someone they care about. Do you really want to make the effort when they don't?
Focus on the people that accept you as you are. They are the people that matter.
Unless you are very strict with who you share your religious and spiritual beliefs with, people will act like that. But they're just not worth your time. ]
