What did witches do to be persecute by the church?
Several reasons: 1: The Bible teaches that witchcraft is evil and an enemy of godly teaching. 2: The symbols and rituals of witchcraft and satanism are direct opposite of those of the church. The church was against all these as it made light of the churches holy rituals. (Actually the symbol of witchcraft is a Pentagram or Triquetta. Just like the cross, when inverted the Pentagram becomes a symbol that Satanists use.) 3: Many church leaders were mistaken in condemning the people and not the sin. 4. Paganism predates Christianity and was the predominate religion before Christ was born. Like Christianity, Paganism has many denominations such as Witchcraft. The Roman empire adopted Christianity and Roman soldiers killed all who opposed. Wicca is a modern form of Witchcraft that has one basic rule, Harm none. It is not the same type of Witchcraft talked about in the Christian Bible, it began long after the Bible was written by several different people sharing their opinion on what took place, which is why it is often confused and interpreted in many ways.
