Witches

I liked the presentation. The history was a little scattered, which made it hard to follow. But I liked the fact that they emphasized that it is not a cult, or that witches do not worship the devil. They did not go into what made them paranormal, except to say that they did spells. But do the spells work? ( and i am not talking about the ones that control the weather) Do they know that the other spells do not work? The opening of people's minds ones.

    I did wonder about the same thing. The detail of what the spells where supposed to actually do was vague.

    All I could gather was that they were more like prayers than super-powers and that they were usually prayers for something like seeing new possibilities in the old.

    I would have like to seen a little bit about the Fundamentalist Christian view of Witches. There is an interesting emphasis on Witches and Satanist among certain Christians. I think they see it as an easy validation of their beliefs: If the devil exists, then God must exist. But I can understand why they might not have addressed that, since it is a bit out of the way.
