no judgement just showing a chink in the armor of morality most of you wear.

Now imagine that senerio when ever someone points to a portion of the bible or history when for those people at that moment in time that was the situation.

Ok so what if.... witches as per folk tales and scary movies existed? (Not the dbag witch/emo/hippies we do have) but real fly on a broom, steal your children cook and eat them, prey on people in general, no prision can hold them, can only be killed by water or fire, but real as the day is long???
Would it then be ok to have an hold witch hunts of old/Salem witch trials?
What if #2: what if just a few hundred years ago these type of witches really did exist and it wasn't superstition and rampant ignorance that over took people. What if the population was then just as aware of reality as we are now, only that the variable in the equation was reality itself and not our ancestors knoweledge of it? Meaning the supernatural was stronger than it is now?
Would that change your view of what they did and why they did what they did?
What if I asked, sought, and knocked, and your god answered and told me to roast you alive on a spit?
then all you need do is make your way here and carry out what you have been told to do.. just don't stop to check out the propane tank on my porch before you try and do it.
