Fellow Voodooists & Hoodoo practitioners, I'm having trouble w/the turn some1 into a frog spell & I need help?

If you ever go to the French Quarter of New Orleans, and visit the Voodoo stores on Royal Street, you will find that while in some ways the goods and displays may seem campy, hardly anybody mocks it even amongst themselves. At least while they are in the store. Somehow one gets the sense that perhaps it would be unwise to be needlessly irreverent of things which one does not understand.
