What a fun little question you posed. You really got everyone's heart pumping with your diatribe.
I believe that evertone has the right to their own belief until that belief spouts violence and hatred. Why as a Christian do you bear false witness against all the modern witches here on this board? We are not the witches of your Bible,we are conservators of this planet who try to clean up the mess that people like you spread because you are too busy making brownie points so you can leave this "dump" and move into heaven. I guess you aren't leaving anyone behind when you go. It is sad to think that all the generations after you will have to live in the swill that you and your's leave behind. Next time you are in church please look to see if your church is cleaner than the neighborhood. Maybe you should start tithing to pay to clean up the temple God granted to you and your children!
As towards how you feel about Witches... who cares! I don't need you, your stupid beliefs or any other things to help me have a better Christian outlook towards life than you. I'd unknot my knickers if I were you and channel all that anger into cleaning up this world, curing poverty and hunger and working towards the peace that your religion claims it promotes. Imagine that, Pagans who are better Christians than Christians.

witches have nothing to do with so called "satan"
Back when the old religion was being made (the wiccan religion) they believed in two deity’s the god of hunting and the god of fertility. Sense the animals they have hunted mostly had horns they believed that their hunting god had horns also. iIt is commonly said that the god of an old religion became the devil of a new one. Sense the Christians devil had horns the Christians believed that the wiccans must be devil worshipers, just because they believed in their hunting god that had horns.
. Most Christians put a stereotype on it because of the past with the whole hunting god thing. Also from the past the wiccans would do a ritual to help their crops grow taller (in which they believed). They would jump around hopping high in the air jumping up and down with poles and sticks and what ever. The Christians saw this from afar and spoke to see that they were flying around on broom sticks this must be the work of the devil! This is so stupid (to the Christians that is) because they weren’t clearly flying through the air it was a simple ritual. Thats how the whole witch on a broom stick matter came about all because the Christians over exaggerated.
witches dont do anything to hurt anyone, they are totally against that.....they do simple rituals that they have to helpt them.....

Do you not know that the term witch means someone who is a follower of a pagan religion called Wicca. They are not evil and they cannot possibly be a practitioner of Satan because they do not believe in Satan. The reason you think they are evil is because when the early christian church was trying to gain power against the pagan religions they told people a lot of lies about the pagan particularly witches. They were lies so it was the Christians who were the evil ones in that situation

I think you're a very ignorant and mislead person. Pagans, or "witches" as you called them are not practicer's of Satan or any other kind of unholy force. Pagans believe in many Gods, or Earthly spirits that take care of the Earth and give it spirituality, rather than one God who just made everything all on his own.
It's a civil country because people like you aren't allowed to make the laws, banning people because they believe something that you don't. It's a civil country because we have the first amendment, where people are free to practice whatever religion they want - or lack of, if they choose.

If you were to put to death all those who went against your beliefs then what would the difference be between you and them?There are those that believe that satans ways are the right ways.Beliefs are for the individual,judgement is for God.

i did no longer vote for Obama yet i do no longer think of he's destroying US. to those that say he's...I say study some historic previous and economics. previous to the large melancholy became into the final time we had such an huge gulf between wealthy and not wealthy and It became into between the main significant factors that led to the melancholy as evidenced via just about all pupils. The wealth redistribution classes of the hot Deal have been to blame for the large Compression which placed maximum folk of the inhabitants into the middle type and became into the main wealthy time in US historic previous. So the whole concept of wealth redistribution collapsing our usa is a hundred% invalid. looks like bitter grapes to me after the numerous some years of trickle down economics proving that it has by no skill and could by no skill artwork. the whole employer style of the U. S. has grow to be so perverted that the whole employer secotr desires to be transformed. those new age robber barons worked their way into the halls of skill and had each and every of the policies against employer revoked which allowed the upward push of the mega-conglomorates...it is in direct opposition to the unfastened marketplace commonly used via the anti-believe rules the place innovation and a artwork ethic can placed somebody forward. immediately it is not any longer the case because of the fact the huge employer device nicely-knownshows any trace of opposition and grinds it out of commercial corporation via the two leaning on government to run the guy out of commercial corporation, stealing the innovation and working guy or woman into courtroom until eventually they're bled dry or basically undeniable ol merchandising with their billions working smear campaigns. i think of that basically because it became into on the tip of the commercial era, it's time for us to as quickly as returned take inventory, reformat our usa because it has drifted so some distance from what it is meant to be and what it became into right into a perverted nightmare. Small employer is sturdy for u . s . of america....those bloated businesses that grow to be lynchpins of the economic equipment and then cave in decrease than their very own weight of ineffiencies and fraud taking us all down with them...are un-American

What "civilized" country are you speaking of?
If you are talking about the USA - that is what the country is supposed to be all about - freedom to believe whatever you choose.
I hope you are being funny - on purpose, because you are laughable!
Get some education!! and sense!
Witches are not of Satan - they worship Mother Earth. If you don't believe that way - well, you are entitled to believe whatever you choose, but, so are they.
You are very misinformed (which is so typical of so-called Bible thumpers - they don't even know what it says! Ever heard of Jesus? and his love for EVERYONE??)

Are you an atheist troll trying to play an extreme believer ?
We have freedom of religion, this was always inherent in Christ and the apostles teaching, though in practice people involved in religion frequently historically get into controlling behaviour. That's why its best to separate religion and state.
However, witchcraft as understood in Old Testament times is declared an abomination in the Old Testament (in God's view). Most witchcraft practiced in the West is probably of the hobbyists/interest type, and much is probably pretty harmless, and doubtless might be pleasing for a person's imagination etc . The power and manupulation stuff is what might bring trouble upon those who practice those kinds of behaviour, due to giving Satan legal rights to bring trouble on them and their families. That is so whether 'witches' believe in Satan or not imo.

What a terrible thing to say, as a Pagan myself I can stand up and say that NO Pagan worships the devil. Last time I checked he is part of your religion. You claim to be of a civilised society, yet you speak as a bigot and facist. Didn't Hitler have people murdered because he had a mindset similar to yours? Yes very civilised.
