Quimbanda is an Afro-Brazilian religion practiced primarily in the urban city centers of Brazil. The religion borrowed many aspects of other traditions, especially Umbanda and Candomblé. Quimbanda's practices are often focused on worldly success regarding money and sex. The religion shares much of the philosophy of LaVeyan Satanism, although it is more focused on the invocation of spirits.

-'''[[Jesus Christ]]''' was a first-century Jewish preacher and religious leader. He is the central figure of [[Christianity]], the world's largest religion. Most Christians believe he is the incarnation of [[Yahweh|God]] the Son and the awaited messiah (the Christ), prophesied in the Hebrew [[Bible]]. Christian doctrines include the beliefs that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit, was born of a virgin named Mary, performed miracles, founded the Christian Church, died by crucifixion as a sacrifice to achieve atonement for sin, rose from the dead, and ascended into Heaven, from where he will return.

-Jesus is also revered in other religions. In [[Islam]], Jesus (often referred to by his Quranic name ʿĪsā) is considered the penultimate [[prophet]] of God and the messiah. Muslims believe Jesus was born of a virgin, but was neither God nor a son of God. The Quran states that Jesus never claimed to be divine. Most Muslims do not believe that he was killed or crucified, but that God raised him into Heaven while he was still alive.
