Exodus 22:18
King James Version (KJV)

18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.

The holy spirit living inside them told them she was a witch I'm sure or at least didn't tell them she wasn't, so why would Drich have a problem burning this poor young girl alive?

Is Drich an Old Testament Jew? Then why would he practice New Testament Christianity by following Old Testament Judaism?

or maybe some one needs to learn to be patient. I was answering posts in the order they were posted.

Quote:Have you read your bible, Drich?

Quote:Hey Drich? Has it ever occurred to you that people can be angry at more than one thing at a time? The fact is, it goes without saying that we're angry at the people who burned her. The simple fact that we're condemning the burning of this woman at all implies we don't like the act! There's nothing racist here, you blithering idiot. Not one of us has mentioned race, let alone in a negative context. The one difference between what we're doing and what you're doing is that we're all intellectually honest enough to see that religion is clearly at fault here too.
not true. The bigotry of the thread has span from region, to this country status as a third world nation, to the average level of education these people are privy to, what you all think they believe. This has been the focus of this thread. I do understand that people can be mad at several different things at once. The difference being is that they typically voice their concerns on all issues. Not just harp on a dead horse. (Which died the moment I informed you that christians do not have any biblical directive the advocates the burning of witches.)

Quote:Because, and think this one through carefully, but where do you think these people got the idea that witches exist at all? Or that they're a threat that needs to be put down? There's no physical evidence of witchcraft, because witchcraft does not exist. Where are they most likely to have gotten these ideas from? They're not naturally occurring concepts, after all.
do dome research before you speak. The term witch is an Anglo term that has been used in a generic form for the purpose of predigesting this story for you.
The idea of people being able to manipulate the super natural via spells and enchantments is not limited to the Christian involvement of witchcraft.
