Abstract

Abstract:This essay explores an evangelical pastor's campaign against the city of Salvador's plans to name a public park after an orixá. The pastor claims that his opposition is based on the notion that Brazil, as a secular state, should not provide public funds or recognition of Afro-Brazilian religions. However, this essay argues that state-sponsored Christian parks and monuments have not faced similar opposition.

Pedra de Xangô公园:历史修复的行为

摘要:这篇文章探讨了一位福音派牧师反对萨尔瓦多市计划以一个orix命名一个公园的运动。这位牧师声称，他的反对是基于巴西作为一个世俗国家，不应该提供公共资金或承认非裔巴西人的宗教。然而，本文认为，国家资助的基督教公园和纪念碑并没有面临类似的反对。
