Do some people commit evil in the name of God? Sure. People commit evil in the name of many things and may even think they're doing the right thing. We should always check our desires against scripture. In the case of burning witches, the bible doesn't condone it. It may have been commanded to the old testament Israelites, but not to us. God's covenant with Moses had it's purposes and his covenant with his followers after the cross has it's purposes.
So god changed his mind? Or he was...wr-wr-wr-wrong?!!
Y'know, it'd be easier to take this seriously if you didn't have an entire book in there where god royally fucks with a truly devoted guy just for yuks. How can we not look at ourselves like meaningless little playthings for a vindictive child-minded overlord in that worldview?
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
