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.

I’m not pro-witch, but I think they are entitled to the rule of law instead of vigilante justice. Some reporters discovered that the “witches” the visiting Wasilla pastor bragged about vanquishing were a couple of crabby older ladies who were critical of the church’s leadership.

Leaving justice to religious leaders of any stripe is an invitation to disaster.re: #633 ladycatnip

#626 Simply Me

Don’t be embarrassed - I think this issue is being driven by the wrong folks and does NOT represent the majority of Republicans at all. I’ve been in the GOP for the better part of 40 years and it has never been an issue - ever. Whoever these ID people are, I distrust them; I distrust their motives and their politics. The very fact that creationism is now an epithet is beyond my comprehension! It makes me angry.
