All of the following are typical characteristics of traditional African religions except the belief that the dead go onto paradise, and their spirits cannot help those left on Earth.

Most original African religions have great respect for Mother Nature, have the belief that life continues after death, and that their dear ones became spirits that maintain certain proximity to them and can help them during life.
