Who was the religious group involved in the Salem witch trial?

The Christian Religion is the most infamous of the Witch Hunters, there certainly were others as well, but Christians were still burning women, children, and men, as few as a couple hundred years ago, and many Christian Zealots, who have murdered their own Children in the last few years, used such excuses as, the children were possessed by this or that, and Jesus told me to Kill them. Of Course if you're looking for the Main Sect Responsible, you must look to the Catholic Church.


Why did witchcraft subside?

Primarily because of the Puritanic trials in the early to late 1700's. Although apparent witchcraft has been greatly reduced in the last few centuries, it has not fallen short of saturating itself in books, games, television, and scientology. In that sense, today's age is full of witchcraft, more so than it has ever been.
