I Practice Witchcraft and Wicca

@SatanBurger Demon possession is very real. This video is from a 70s live radio show. I don't see how a woman can be faking two very different voices (denomic guttaral sounds) coming out of her at the same time. Unless she is denomically possessed (thats one of the signs of denomic possession)


There's a point in being skeptical but to deny evidence shows you're not ready to face the truth. Witchcraft is one of the oldest practises in human hisory. Every civilization has done it. Tell me why every generation and every society and ruling class practises witchcraft or have witches and sorcerers counselling them if it doesn't work? Obviously witchcraft works. They did it and saw results. You need to open your eyes. This world is not purely material.

@Firechidist People believe all sorts of things that are not true. Some people still deny that the Holocaust wasn't real. There's not a lot but there's quite a few that believe that.

There's actually quite a few factors for why people reacted to witchcraft in the way they did:

1: Ad Baculum

[quote]In both the Crucible and the Red Scare, [b]ad baculum[/b] was a very prominent logical fallacy. In the Crucible, people were told to fear the "witches" because they were consumed by the devil. A specific example would be when Abigail threatened to kill the other girls if they told what really happened in the woods with Tituba. During the Red Scare people were taught to fear the communists.

The Crucible and Red Scare both also contain representations of [b]band wagon[/b]. If you weren't jumping on board to hunt down the witches/Communists, then you were accused of being a witch/Communist, so everyone was trying to prove themselves as innocent by being like everyone else.

In the 1600s, everything was done in honor of the church. If you did something other than what the preacher preached, then you were accused of being consumed by the devil. During that specific time period, they were obviously not technologically advanced. A lot of the cause of these witch trials were due to unexplained behavior, which [b][c=#BF6900]later was discovered to be because of their food and health conditions[/c][/b].[/quote]


2: Post hoc ergo propter hoc (Latin: "after this, therefore because of this")

[quote]Many superstitions use this. For instance, a black cat crosses my path on the way to school. I then fail a test that day. If I used this fallacy, I may conclude I failed because of the black cat, while ignoring other factors such as the amount of time I spent studying.

The rooster crows before sunrise, therefore the crowing rooster causes the sun to rise.

The drunk scientist conducts an experiment to see why he gets hangovers. He decides to keep a diary. Monday night, scotch and soda; Tuesday morning, hangover. Tuesday night, gin and soda; Wednesday morning, hangover. Wednesday night, vodka and soda; Thursday morning, hangover. Thursday night, rum and soda; Friday morning, hangover. On Friday night before going out for a drink, the drunk scientist has an epiphany. "Aha!" he says to himself, "I've got it! Soda causes hangovers!"

In the immortal words of Andrew Schlafly: "In Romania, abortion was illegal under two decades of rule by the communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu, and the country enjoyed one of the lowest breast cancer rates in the entire world during that time, far lower than comparable Western countries."[3] (Just because the breast cancer rate went down does not mean that the illegality of abortions caused it.)

When compared on a graph, the number of deaths by falling and drowning in a swimming pool correlates with the number of movies that Nick Cage is in. This is completely coincidental.. Unless it's not.[4][/quote]

@SatanBurger You must not have had any supernatural experience, been brainwashed in school or you are just lying if you seriously think almost all of mankind has been tricked to thinking the supernatural IS real. If you think witchcraft demons the devil and angels and the supernatural is not real. Figure out why so many people do believe. Maybe visit a live exorcism at a local church then make up your mind.

Why did you name yourself Satans burger if you don't believe Satan is real? You are wasting your time trying to change my mind. I know the truth. Jesus is the way, the truth and the resurrection. If you seek the truth you'll see all truth leads to him.

@Firechidist A logical fallacy has nothing to do with tricking mankind. Fallacies are about flaws in reasoning. My response wasn't trying to disprove nor prove the existence of God, it was about introducing factors in which you missed about witches and demons. Including but not limited to time periods and cultural attitudes.

@SatanBurger Okay sweetie but I already know all about that. You don't need to tell me.

@Firechidist Sweetheart, judging by your previous response you obviously didn't know. You countered with many personal objectives so you missed the point.
