The government made big bucks off of the trials since spectators were numerous and anxious to see killings of "satanic" individuals. One Sad story I read in my Women and Religion class of one family with a sad and cruel fate. The towns people watched as a womans breasts were cut off and then put in the mouth of her young children, shaming her as a mother. Her husband also had a sad fate. The town’s people pushed a stick up his anus and then accusing him of sodomy. His family was not of the predominant Protestant "Christian" sect and that is why these innocent victims were targeted.

I can’t understand how people of a religion whose leader says "love thy neighbour" could be so cruel. Then again, Galileo viewed as a “heretic” by the Catholic Church for opposing much of what Aristotle professed was only forgiven by the Church for his astronomical observations a few years ago. His thought, “the Bible shows how to go to heaven not how the heavens go” is interesting. Although I personally like the Dalai Lamas view on religion. He says, "My religion is simple, my religion is kindness." Moreover, these days I completely understand Ghandi’s ethos when expressing, “Give me your Jesus and take your Christianity!” I wonder if we could also say, “Give me your Mohammad and take your Islam….
