Isn't it relatively common for Christianity to be mixed with the occult / traditional beliefs of the "indigenous" converts?

It's more like Christianity is a thug that comes in, steals your holidays, traditions, and symbols and then kicks you out of your house only to turn it into a church.

I'm thinking of examples like Voodoo and Santeria, and there's something with Central and South American Christians that I can't think of the name of.

Voodoo, Hoodoo, Santeria do indeed steal from Christianity, yes. I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s normal. I mean there’s cargo cults so that says something about people more than religions.
