Talking about all of this witch nonsense isn’t complete without a Monty Python clip…
It’s funny, except when you think that there were actually people like this — and indeed, that some still exist today, as we’ve seen in Africa.

Too many witch hunts. Too many misled witch hunters – even today.
I go to the gym regularly with my pentacostal sister. Before Obama won the election she proceeded to tell me that America is not ready for a black president. WTH?
She said, “have you seen footage of his pastor! He hates America!”
I said, “have you seen footage of the pastor? that “blessed” Palin?”
I said he’s a witch doctor!
She said, “oh… but he was ministering over her to not get possessed….

I posted a blog about the Witches of Africa a while back. They are just children!!
Far from all “witch burnings” were actually superstitious folks afraid of witches. It was a Medieval debt reconciliation technique.
If I owe you money and I can’t pay you back I either go to debtor’s prison or become your servant until I repaid my debt in labor. But If I don’t want to do either, I accuse you of being a with with a few other of your debtors, get you tried and executed then voila! You’re dead and by a divine koinkedink I don’t owe you any money anymore.
Praise the Lord!
(and on a historical note, that’s why Phillip destroyed the Knights Templar and killed Jaques de Molay)
