I just got that excerpt from the post. Whatever happened in that village, its such an extreme what they did.. burning people alive.. who knows, basig para nila dili na sayop.. i certainly wouldn't want to be in that situation where i'm burned alive in case i practice witchcraft.

Grabe sad..christian man dayon hehehe..niay excerpt from a blogger interested in witchcraft thingy:

Tales of magic, witchcraft and wizardry are but fairy tales to children in most parts of the world. Yet in the Kisii district of Kenya’s Nyanza Province, the fears of witchcraft are very real to many people and the consequences are lethal.

In the Itii village of the district, five elderly women and men accused of bewitching a young male child were executed – burned to death by a lynch mob. The child, claimed the mob of villagers, had been unable to speak to any person in the village except the executed men and women. Not only adult villagers, but youth too, participated in the lynching. All believed that the lynching was a punishment deserved by the witches. In other words, it was an administration of ‘justice.’

The practice of lynching in the Kisii district is so widespread that street signs even warn that witches will be prosecuted. Even in other parts of Kenya, the problem persists in a way that eludes authorities because the beliefs are so widespread. It is not unusual for accused witches to receive warning letters and flee their villages for fear of persecution. The relatives and children of accused witches bear a stigma that can ostracize them or shame them within their own communities...

Wala man ni kalainan diri sa pinas kung asa diri sa manila bogbog sarado usahay ning mga kawatan o snatchers pag masakpan sa mga 'taong bayan'... di ba mga christian pud baya ning envolve usahay sa 'mob justice' hehehe...in the case of the five witches burn in Kenya, AFP did not say anything about 'christian mobs' out for witch hunting. People in some parts of Kenya will burn suspected witches not necessarily because witches do not believe in Christ..simply because some people there really believe that witchcraft is real and a threat to one's life..

Christians of the middle ages did the same atrocity.

I think until now.

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

yeah, i agree.. like i said, i got that excerpt from the post..

but its still too much or extreme to go burning people for "witchcraft"..

lahi man na ang snatcher or robber, we have snatchers/robbers here who kill for cellphone, and being a tribal society, an eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth.. sentiments of the people is that they will want those robbers dead too..

but witchcraft? that's basically hocus pocus and its pretty much like the inquisition who tortured out of "zealous faith" which is similar to that happening in Kenya.. thus the Christian analogy.
