“In retrospect....I wonder just how many of the “witches” and “warlocks” burn at Salem were homosexual/pedophilia inclined.

Probably more to the story than what has ever been delved into.”

This is a pretty ignorant statement.

There were no ‘witches’ burned at Salem, they were hung. Most of them were women. They were not practicing witchcraft at all but accused by others as so.

Ignorance acknowledged.....about the “burning”, however, I did emphasize the “Witches” and “Warlocks” not because they were practicing, but “accused” as you said.

Sorry for the oversight on not making myself clear concerning “accused”.
