Sorcery. Wow. And yet, it’s conservatives and the Tea Party that are living in the Dark Ages...

I wonder what so-called evidence they had against the four.

Ladies, if you live in Syria, this is probably not the time to start ‘dabbling’ in witchcraft. Wait till you come back Stateside, then let your Pagans out of the closet.

(Spoken with a distinct British accent) What a lovely story to read about as we have a cup of tea, don’t you say? The birds are chirping, the sun is shining and the children are, um, playing in the garden chasing butterflies. Meanwhile, in Syria, those noble lads with ISIS are beheadin’ women for practicing sorcery of some kind. The probably burned the biscuits or something like that and the chaps thought they were practicing some kind of “black” magic.
