Decent churches stand for Jesus. The don’t burn people, they try and reform them and see them redeemed.

Anyway, contrary to popular opinion, witches were hanged, not burned.

Burning was the traditional method, hanging relatively more recent. The minimum recorded death toll (the surviving documentation of trials) was around 12,000, but the actual number could be over 60,000.
