Child Witchcraft…yeah that still happens
My distaste for the many negative results of religious belief is no secret to my regular readers. Most people in the West are familiar with the interplay between religion and witchcraft. Often, we think of it as something that ended sometime in the 17th century, and in most parts of the West, it did. However, in many parts of the developing world, Christianity (and Islam) are still used to hunt “witches”. Often these witches are women and children. These women and kids are usually disabled, and are often put to death. Why? Well, you see, it is “god’s will”. There really is not place for this type of ignorant thought in today’s world, yet, thanks to religion, we still have it hanging around. Below you will find a link to a new video by video blogger Daniel Corbett. I very much recommend that you check it out:
