I grew up as a christian, and I still am.. But lately whenever i see witch burning or read somthing about it, it really bothers me.. It offends me. It really feels personal..
My family came over from Poland in the 1900's so I am sure my background has nothing to do with Salem.
Does any one know if there were recorded witch burnings in Poland or the surrounding areas? Thanks.

Is there any records of young women or children being burned?

The last judicial execution for witchcraft in Europe took place in Poland in 1793, when two old women were burned. (Smith, 295).

Europe had tons of witch burnings. Salem was nothing compared to Europe but it seems it gets all the press here.
The last case of witch-burning in European history was recorded in Poland 1792

well good thing for you, Christianity held reincarnation as one of its core beliefs before 300AD, and it was only abolished because it didnt fit with the central churches ideas for leading the masses. basically youve been around for thousands of years, and im sure youve experienced some sort of life among or around witches and persecution of witches which is why you feel so close to those incidents. you dont have to be related to the people you reincarnate as, it could be anyone. you just keep going around the cycle until your soul has learned everything you need to and are able to escape to heaven with Jesus's (or whoever else has gotten there and you wish to call upon) help. you should try some hypnotic regressions. maybe that will help you understand more about these feelings youre getting.
