Always interesting to hear from the "pro witchcraft" element on FR.
The human beings listed below died at Puritan hands in 1692 and a total of between between 175 and 200 people were imprisoned for "Witchcraft".
Questions, Alex Murphy:
1. How many of those human beings do you believe were actually "witches"?
2. How many of those human beings do you believe deserved to die?
3. What do you think that Christ would say about the interpretation of Scripture used by the Puritans as an excuse to execute those human beings?
