@@dariuskapriswalburge Right? I won’t make the list, but for those of us with some sense of history and a touch of common sense, we see the parallels and similarities.
Nathaniel Hawthorne is the direct descendent of “the hanging judge,” John Hathorne, his great-great grandfather, the presiding judge of the Salem witch trials who sentenced these innocent villagers to their deaths by hanging. Nathaniel changed his surname from Hathorne to Hawthorne bc of the shame associated with the Salem witch trials and the consequential role his great-great grandfather played in the unjust sentencing and deaths of the accused villagers. His family name is forever tainted.
I am a descendant of Rebecca, my cousin is a PI, and have the documents of our family history. What a story to be told, and a family of. Heartbreaking what these people went through
The first witch trials victim in New England was executed in Connecticut May 26 1647, named Alice (Alse) Young of Windsor Connecticut. It’s weird to me why the focus is always directed to Salem when that’s not where it started and certainly not where or when it ended, additionally Salem wasn’t even where the most executions were done.
After the Crucible and Bewitched Salem is the only place where people were accused of witchcraft in New England. A frightening number of people consider movies and television shows to be historical fact.
Because it was a village, a concentrated area where neighbor accused neighbor and people were hanged with spectral evidence. It didn’t begin and end there but it was a profound and concentrated hysteria to one area in a short time. A true tragedy.
I had an American History professor tell the class I was in that these Witch Trials were actually blown out of proportion, much ado about nothing. I wish I knew his exact words, but that was 25 years ago.
The hysteria started in England and Holland and they brought it to the new world, New England, which consists of Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont.

This video seems to have quite a Catholic lean to it. There's nothing wrong with going straight to God with your confessions. Not having a priest to confess to for absolution doesn't leave you with no outlet unless you don't believe God exists.
@@debra91 You sound like a Puritan. Catholics are much more than that and yes regular members pray to Father and the Son for forgiveness, all Catholics believe Jesus Christ died on cross so they can be forgiven by just asking. Confession is conversing with an ordained priest so they can give guidance on what you need to correct and thus do better in the future... it's also act of humbling yourself before the church and God. Saying it out loud to another person helps you realize what you've done, and the other person helps you move past it. If you're so guilty you can't speak your sins aloud, you may never move past them or even understand how. The church nor members of your church can help you if you keep secrets.
Yep. We were taught the “pilgrims “ were fleeing religious persecution, come to find out they were religious zealots, the English would no longer tolerate THEIR bigotry and hated. Now they are here. And still zealots. Still bigots and hate mongers. Still intolerable.
What gave people the God given right to judge these gifted people who had spiritual gifts. In Catholic religion it is known as the sixth sense! I learnt my senses in my middle Catholic School!
Puritainims was a protestant political movement that demanded freedom of religion from the cult of Rome and of England . It is not itself a religion- so , who was this Parris guy? No one seems to know. Puritain isnt a real answer.
It's a denomination of a protestant religion. The religious beliefs affect the political beliefs, which was different from the other denominations. They were considered extremist. so it is part of the answer. The real mystery is more so why the girls were accusing others as using witchcraft in the first place? Boredom, trauma, angry, or possibly them seeing an act that did not follow in line with Puritan teaching (that is "following the devil" so-called witch)?
The similarities between these Puritans and today's maga gop are astonishing. They still go after anyone who is different, whether by gender, race, or skin colour with their intolerance and religious zealotry.
Have a close look at the makeup and policies of the MAGA - GOP and youll find a broad mix of Puritanism and Nazi ism, it's a good thing that the Republican Party is imploding right before our eyes, most of their supporters belong back in the days of the Witch trials.@@johnmassoud930
They thought they looked like warts or a freckles or birth marks and that the insidious part they would poke them with needles and if person didn’t feel pain that was the witches mark and they would go over the persons entire body Poking every blemish on your body with needle but if you Polk someone with a needle enough they become numb to it and stop feeling the pain
Puritans were some of the most literate people who have a great emphasis on reading the Bible. However, how and what they interpret was up for debate as there's was no quality control. So your theory isn't true.
The hysteria didn't begin in Salem Town, which is now Salem today, but in Salem Village, which is now known as Danvers.
How so?
IT'S UNBELIEVABLE NO ONE WITH THE SLIGHTEST EDUCATION TRIED TO STOP THIS MADNESS!!!
They were not educated they were puritans. They didn’t need education only needed the Bible and god. 🙄

THE LOST AND BESOTTED - Lili
Full moon tonight, would you like to play? Come with me to the woods tonight
We’ll take a drop of the Witches brew soaked in Mandrake root. Oh yes
The marsh and bog won’t slow us down, the moon will show the meadow bright
You’ll lay with me on the wet dew grass, the Spirits all will bless
The love will flow like a torrent fast, the coupling goes on for ages
We’ll last all night, through the laughter joy, until the morning light. -
You’ll become besotted, deep in love but I’ve stolen your true Spirit
It was nothing but a night of love and now I own your soul
There’ll be many more I’ll take along, they’ll all become my slaves
They’ll procure the sweet young flesh, the blood to fill our bowl
And when the number counts to ten, the first three all will die
I’ll take three more to the meadow deep, slaves we will control. -
They can’t resist the lure of sex and then we share our blood
Oh pretty please my handsome man you don’t know what’s in store
The Coven takes, the Coven gives, and you will give your life
Hypnosis deep and potions strong, Succumb to Satan’s whore
Chained far in the forest now confusion fills your mind
Go steal the young when we demand, this is the Sabbats lore. -
And when we’ve finished with your soul you’ll sink into the mire
Replaced with others young and strong who cry to do our bidding
There’s forests deep all through the land and secrets very dire
People lost might wander through, lost forever or just hidden
We’ll keep them lost till Sabbats time and then they’ll join our throng
The wine the Blood, the Water, Life. Be lost or come, belong.
Blessed be.

The maze of secret panels, the lure of lust and love
The loss of all you thought you were, my vassal to exploit
I’ve filled your mind with feeding worms, they’ll drain your soul and thoughts
Addicted now to all I’ve shown, the poppy, Mandrake root
The Sabbat’s songs, communal love, a slave now to the Goat. -
You’ll join the others we have trapped and taken full control
To learn the secrets of the dark, to serve us in our wants
To rob the cradles for our needs, the innocence of souls
Gather all the weeds and herbs to stew and blend and mold
The Legion of the dead inside to infiltrate all the flock
Wolves in sheepskins persuade the lukewarm, come in from the cold. -
We need the young, the girls just ripe, we nurture all their gifts
The music loud all fun and dance, the powder does entice
Leave their homes and come with us, we’ll open up your World
The Coven gives, the Coven takes, new World of love and spice
We own this World, it’s all theirs now, forget the God of hate
They’ll never want or need again, a World of sin and vice.-
Why tie yourself unto a God, demanding your whole life
When Ahriman, Lord of the dark will give you so much more?
The fruits of life will all be yours, no guilt, remorse or hate
