Well this is interesting. What's even funnier is that the Christians were on the losing end of intellect even then; they saw or heard of a witch 'riding' a broom and apparently couldn't figure out why, even when simply tasked with 'reverse engineering' the reason instead of trying to discover it on their own. So we end up with even more superstitions now.
