I’d say “strange, but harmless” is in the eye of the beholder. One of the guest pastors at Palin’s church bragged about his group running “witches” out of town in their African village. No big deal to me personally, but if I were one of the women in that village deemed a “witch” and beaten up, I don’t think I’d feel the local church was “strange, but harmless.” Agree?

Witches in some of the African countries are not harmless. We are naive to apply our American frame of reference to what goes on there.
