How can you prove you are not a witch?

You do not have to prove you are nota witch. Others have to prove that you are a witch. Even if you are a witch, or Wicca, there is nothing wrong with that (in the US).


How did people 'prove' that you were a witch back in the time?

Basically, by killing them. One test they used to determine wether someone was a witch or not was to tie up the accused person to a chair, and throw them into a body of water. If the person was a witch, they would free themselves and escape death. If not (which was invariably the case), they would drown. Most tests were like this; if they're a witch, they'll survive this for sure death sentence; if not, they're not a witch and they'll die. EDIT: There was no way to prove an accused witch's innocence in Salem. Witch tests like those detailed above were considered barbaric and the evidence of witchcraft and nonexistance of such were used to decide by the judges to decide on a verdict.

How do you prove people are witches?

How do you prove people are Christians? Do they have to go to church every sunday? Do they have to read their bible regularly? You can no more "prove" that I am a Witch or a Christian unless you observe me, get to know me, and find out what my beliefs and customs are. If you did this, then you would know that I am a Witch and not a Christian... but the question is why do you have to "prove" anything?
