View Full Version : Should witches still be burned? Why? 10-31-07, 02:28 PM Afterall, they're witches. Nikelodeon 10-31-07, 02:29 PM But then killing them would make us feel bad. Or not. cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 02:30 PM Afterall, they're witches. So you burn someone for practicing their religion? Why? 10-31-07, 02:37 PM Yes. They're evil and must be terminated. MacGyver1968 10-31-07, 02:38 PM geez why, I hope your joking. cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 02:39 PM Yes. They're evil and must be terminated. Name one thing a witch has done that they should be burned for besides practicing their own faith. shichimenshyo 10-31-07, 02:44 PM Yes. They're evil and must be terminated. Then shouldnt jews still be crucified? Pandaemoni 10-31-07, 02:46 PM Afterall, they're witches. Do you mean modern witches (wiccans) or old fashioned "she turned me into a newt!" witches? Enmos 10-31-07, 02:47 PM If they really were witches howcome they let themselves be burned ? I don't get that :shrug: Enmos 10-31-07, 02:48 PM Yes. They're evil and must be terminated. I thought you was joking, but... :bugeye: Are you serious ? MacGyver1968 10-31-07, 02:49 PM I was wondering that too, Enmos...since this is Halloween. spidergoat 10-31-07, 02:50 PM No, they have a right to their own beliefs. If they do something criminal, then the police should get involved rather than mob justice. Enmos 10-31-07, 02:51 PM I was wondering that too, Enmos...since this is Halloween. Yeah, I learned the hard way that that's no excuse to assert certain things.. or post certain pictures.. lol ;) Why? 10-31-07, 02:54 PM Well, by burning witches - aren't we sending them exactly where they want to be? With the devil in his fiery dominion. shichimenshyo 10-31-07, 02:57 PM Well, by burning witches - aren't we sending them exactly where they want to be? With the devil in his fiery dominion. Well I mean by killing jews we are just sending them where they want to go as well. I say we just get certain groups of people together who share different beliefs than us and kill them. cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 02:58 PM Well, by burning witches - aren't we sending them exactly where they want to be? With the devil in his fiery dominion. Is that what you have been taught? If so you are very mistaken. An example: Samhain, one of eight Wiccan Sabbats, is loosely based on a Celtic celebration tied to harvest and preparing for winter. Smith noted the seasonal festival was incorporated into Christian traditions as All Hallows Eve, and All Saints Day as time progressed. "Of course Halloween as it's practised today is essentially a secular celebration," she said. But groups of Wiccans will gather in homes and yards around the city tonight and in the coming nights to celebrate Samhain, while offering food and warmth to their loved ones who have died. "The veil between the living and the dead is at its thinnest then," Smith said, noting people will share stories about loved ones and feast as well. Spiritual undertakings will include casting a sacred circle. But this modern pagan gathering doesn't include any of the stereotypes often associated with witchcraft, such as ill will or animal sacrifice. "We tend to worship in small groups," said Smith, who was an atheist until discovering Wicca more than a decade ago. "It was a religion that matched my ethical code." Wicca's origins can be traced as far back as the 1920s, although the neopagan religion was later popularized by an English civil servant. Wicca gained legal status as a religion in Canada in 1987. Several groups of Wiccans meet regularly throughout the city. At the time of the 2001 Canadian census, more than 21,000 Canadian citizens listed their religion as Pagan, an increase of more than 280% over the 1991 census. http://www.winnipegsun.com/News/Winnipeg/2007/10/31/4619062-sun.html Crunchy Cat 10-31-07, 03:02 PM Yes. They're evil and must be terminated. Oh the irony. Enmos 10-31-07, 03:05 PM Oh the irony. I'm starting to think Why? is evil.. I wonder if we should burn him at the stakes, what say you ? :D cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 03:09 PM I'm starting to think Why? is evil.. I wonder if we should burn him at the stakes, what say you ? :D Let him keep digging his own grave, he will jump into it as well. Enmos 10-31-07, 03:10 PM Let him keep digging his own grave, he will jump into it as well. I'll make sure he does.. shichimenshyo 10-31-07, 03:10 PM I'm starting to think Why? is evil.. I wonder if we should burn him at the stakes, what say you ? :D I second that notion! cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 03:11 PM I'll make sure he does.. :bravo: :roflmao: Gustav 10-31-07, 03:17 PM yes yes yes MacGyver1968 10-31-07, 03:18 PM I'm starting to think Why? is evil.. I wonder if we should burn him at the stakes, what say you ? :D (holding lit bic lighter) I'm in. Why? 10-31-07, 03:27 PM The righteous can not be burned at the stake. A host of angels will save us, who will shoot burning arrows into your private parts! Crunchy Cat 10-31-07, 03:27 PM I'm starting to think Why? is evil.. I wonder if we should burn him at the stakes, what say you ? :D Typically, people whom think an objective thing called 'evil' exists usually consider torture and killing evil (ex. burning a witch). Crunchy Cat 10-31-07, 03:28 PM The righteous can not be burned at the stake. A host of angels will save us, who will shoot burning arrows into your private parts! Are you saying that you cannot be burned at the stake? I would volunteer to test that claim ;). cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 03:29 PM The righteous can not be burned at the stake. A host of angels will save us, who will shoot burning arrows into your private parts! All my parts are public! Why? 10-31-07, 03:31 PM Well, that just shows how lewd atheistic demon lover you are. shichimenshyo 10-31-07, 03:32 PM Well, that just shows how lewd atheistic demon lover you are. Your command of the english language is astounding. :rolleyes: cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 03:32 PM Well, that just shows how lewd atheistic demon lover you are. Because I have public parts? MacGyver1968 10-31-07, 03:33 PM Well, that just shows how lewd atheistic demon lover you are. If you're an atheist, you don't believe in demons...so how can you be a demon lover? Why? 10-31-07, 03:38 PM Well, demons give out great candy. cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 03:38 PM Well, demons give out great candy. And you eat it so you must be one of them!! :eek: Why? 10-31-07, 03:46 PM Well, I am evil. So are all men. But, in shades of gray, I'm only off-white, whereas the rest of you atheists or demon lovers are pitch black. Orleander 10-31-07, 03:49 PM I wasted every dang birthday wish from 5-9 wishing to be like Samantha and Bewitched. Then I realized how silly it all was. The witch part, not the birthday wish part. Tell you what Why, if you find a witch like that, feel free to burn her. cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 03:50 PM Well, I am evil. Now the truth is known!! shichimenshyo 10-31-07, 03:52 PM Well, I am a rapist. I knew it! Why? 10-31-07, 03:57 PM Evil, but only for tonight. Don't ask, don't tell. cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 03:58 PM Evil, but only for tonight. Don't ask, don't tell. :shh: shichimenshyo 10-31-07, 04:00 PM Gay, but only for tonight. Don't ask, don't tell. :eek: greenberg 10-31-07, 04:19 PM If they really were witches howcome they let themselves be burned ? Probably because they are "witches" according to someone else's definition of "witch" and not their own. spidergoat 10-31-07, 04:35 PM A genuine witch would be evidence of supernatural forces, and you just want to burn it? Put it in a museum! Religious people should rejoice at such a discovery, since it would go a long way towards proving their worldview. greenberg 10-31-07, 04:37 PM Yeah, but they don't want their worldview proved by witches. Enmos 10-31-07, 05:18 PM Well, I am evil. So are all men. But, in shades of gray, I'm only off-white, whereas the rest of you atheists or demon lovers are pitch black. Good, so according to your own philosophy you should be burned at the stakes. Did I get that right ? Enmos 10-31-07, 05:19 PM Probably because they are "witches" according to someone else's definition of "witch" and not their own. Yup, Why? believes in fairytales. Captain Kremmen 10-31-07, 05:19 PM Why is a witch. He passed by my farm the other day and my cow has become ill. Burn him! lucifers angel 10-31-07, 05:28 PM Afterall, they're witches. no no one should be burned alive!! LEAVE WITCHES ALONE!! Enmos 10-31-07, 05:28 PM Why is a witch. He passed by my farm the other day and my cow has become ill. Burn him! I still hope he is joking. On the other hand, a sick joke like this... cosmictraveler 10-31-07, 05:28 PM Why is a witch. He passed by my farm the other day and my cow has become ill. Burn him! That's udderly ridiculous! Captain Kremmen 10-31-07, 05:45 PM That's udderly ridiculous! I wouldn't mind so much but it's my favourite cow. Tiassa 10-31-07, 08:40 PM Why is a witch. But what does he weigh, relative to, say, a duck? redarmy11 10-31-07, 08:49 PM Let's toss him 'pon the scales of ultimate justice. mountainhare 10-31-07, 10:10 PM A witch turned me into a newt... I got better. pjdude1219 10-31-07, 10:10 PM The righteous can not be burned at the stake. A host of angels will save us, who will shoot burning arrows into your private parts! why don't ask joan of arc bout that James R 10-31-07, 10:26 PM Why?: If you can specify which witches you mean, perhaps we can salvage this thread from the cesspool. Also explain why you think they ought to be burnt. Stryder 10-31-07, 11:12 PM Do you mean modern witches (wiccans) or old fashioned "she turned me into a newt!" witches? I wouldn't suggest that Wiccan and Witch are the same, at least not by the Oxford English Dictionaries definition of witch, "A woman supposed to have dealings with the Devil or evil spirits". Obviously Wicca evolved from Paganism, where as "Witch" was a terming created by the church to generate scaremongering against people that didn't conform to their doctrines. Obviously to myself Religion and the Supernatural are all one in the same, "Cods wallop". So if someone wants to go around suggesting their a witch, they shouldn't be burnt however they shouldn't be malicious either. Stryder 10-31-07, 11:14 PM why don't ask joan of arc bout that Actually I don't think that was so much about Witchcraft, but more to the fact that she was attempting to march French Patriots in a war campaign against the English. I don't think a squadron of Angels would of saved her from her attempt. pjdude1219 10-31-07, 11:54 PM Actually I don't think that was so much about Witchcraft, but more to the fact that she was attempting to march French Patriots in a war campaign against the English. I don't think a squadron of Angels would of saved her from her attempt. she was burned for being a witch Stryder 11-01-07, 01:28 AM she was burned for being a witch Ah, Thats what the English said to try and break the support she'd mustered. Captain Kremmen 11-01-07, 03:03 AM But what does he weigh, relative to, say, a duck? In duck weight. About 60 ducks, give or take a duck. lucifers angel 11-01-07, 04:05 AM Witches were burnt because people were scared of them, but if you believe people are into wicka then that is a religion and perhaps they should be left alone, we dont see any born again christians, mormons, getting burnt for what they belive in cosmictraveler 11-01-07, 04:08 AM Witches were burnt because people were scared of them, but if you believe people are into wicka then that is a religion and perhaps they should be left alone, we dont see any born again christians, mormons, getting burnt for what they belive in Actually, as was mentioned already, they were burned for not conforming to the majority of people who were Christians back then. lucifers angel 11-01-07, 04:10 AM Actually, as was mentioned already, they were burned for not conforming to the majority of people who were Christians back then. sorry i didnt read all the posts: so people wanted them to be like them and do what they did? cosmictraveler 11-01-07, 04:15 AM sorry i didnt read all the posts: so people wanted them to be like them and do what they did? Yes. lucifers angel 11-01-07, 04:17 AM Yes. people were also scared! and people hate it when they dont understand it, so they destroy what they dont understand cosmictraveler 11-01-07, 04:18 AM people were also scared! and people hate it when they dont understand it, so they destroy what they dont understand Yes, but that is what happens when you have a religion controlling everything. Orleander 11-01-07, 01:30 PM If she were a real witch, wouldn't she stop you from burning her? Enmos 11-01-07, 01:36 PM If she were a real witch, wouldn't she stop you from burning her? I asked that too, but no answer yet... :shrug: Captain Kremmen 11-01-07, 01:38 PM If she were a real witch, wouldn't she stop you from burning her? Not if you tape her nose so she can't wiggle it. Or......... ask them to spell Witch. While they are thinking about it, Light the bonfire. Orleander 11-01-07, 01:43 PM oooohhh, that's smart! |
