How did witches supposedly get their powers?

Answer 1

They didn't know what they were doing, as they were paranoid superstitious Christians who conducted the infamous witch trials in Salem and elsewhere. They would administer such tests as "The Drowning Test," where they would take a suspected witch and try to drown her. It was a common belief that witches floated in water no matter what. So, if she was a witch, she would either float or she would somehow magickally escape and fly away. If she was not a witch, then she would, well, SHE WOULD DROWN, so the person was condemned to death either way.

They kept doing this to innocent people over, and over, and over again all because of the fear of the christian god.

Answer 2

What Happened in the 17th Century, was that the person who was suspected to be a witch would either be burned and set free for three days and if the burn healed up by then, then the person would be innosent, if it didn't then you were a witch and would be burned at the stake.

Or they would tie you up and throw you into a deep river, if you were able to swim back to the top then you were a witch, if not you were innosent and you would drown, so you were dead either way.
