"Ok, now we see the reasoning. Anyone with religeous beliefs other than christian are "witches"."

No, witches and other spiritists are a class of religion that is especially dangerous because of the communiction with fallen angels.

Canaanites marked off a set of innocents for destruction--babies. And christians marked off a set of innocents for destruction--batty old woman. Why should I consider either one of these outfits fit company in a humane, tolerant, civilized world?

I've explained one way that communication with the spirit world "defiles" you. There is a big difference between a spiritist and an innocent baby.

And I don't believe in complete "tolerance" of every act and belief. A "civilized" world will not remain "civil" if complete tolerance is allowed. You'll end up murdering unborn babies. You'll end up catering to homosexuals. You'll end up killing your disabled, because they are inconvenient. You'll end up consulting psychics, spiritists and witches and fall into every evil imaginable.

I see. Fallen angels. Gotcha. How many jews have been publicly burned at the stake by "spiritists"? How many anabaptists babies drowned? How many Knight's Templer hanged by the legal processes of a spiritist State?

Tell me, in what manner is there any better proof that Marone was a "fallen Angel", than that Gabriel, or any angel that appeared to christ was a fallen angel. Why is there any better reason to trust the bible rather than the book of mormon or the koran? Because you say so? Because the Pope says so? Not exactly an unprejudiced court, wouldn't you say?

Indeed you have. You have communicated accurately the ignorant, intolerant attitude that allowed christians to murder hundreds of thousands of defenseless, innocent old women while waving the banner of "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live".

This is a rave. It is not a sensible argument. Being tolerant of other's spiritual beliefs is highly separable from being tolerant of any arbitrary act no matter how heineously damaging to others.

You'll end up consulting psychics, spiritists and witches and fall into every evil imaginable.

This is nonsense. Insofar as preserving civilization is concerned--people do not need to be persecuted for their beliefs, only for their actions which do tort harm to others. You're just trying to recruit the state to fight your religeous battles here. Wikkans and mediums have as much right to preach their religions as you do yours.
