nuhh..i live in other country and we believe on it but not just putting herbs means witch..cuz herbal is a medicine..and its pretty good than chemical medicine..
I just found out that a relative of mine was a witch.Her name was Agnes Naismith and she was exected in Paisley, Glasgow in 1697. From what I have heard and found out through books etc, she wasn't an evil woman, but just as the above video says, some where burned at the stake for being herbalists etc.
well this is a couple years old. Today Halloween 2008) UK parliament was presented with a petition to pardon ALL those accused of being witches thru time. Murdered by govt and churches. May they rest in peace!
The ceremony yesterday went well, with Mary Martin leading the ceremony, with the actors from the cauldron play, also placing herbs on the memorial. In full dress it added to the event. John Lindsay did a poem as well.
Also has had good press coverage, to try and help Helen Duncan get her pardon.
i find this interesting since you know this then did you know that somewhere in i belive rome they hung people acussed of witchcraft on two hooks and let them slowly die the blood stains are suposedly still there
Aye, pardoned by a twat who bought a pub and title - I'm sure they will all feel better for that ... what's the twat going to do this year, have hooded figures dance around his new totem pole?
Well, no, we have a play tonight and tomorrow called The Cauldron. Tomorrow at 2.45 we have a short memorial to 81 women and men. You are more than welcome. The Murals are all produced by people who live and come from Prestonpans or nearby.Who all feel this is sad story that should be told.
I might consider it - tell me, what percentage of born and bred Panners are in the cast of the play? How much does it cost, and what percentage of the ticket price goes back to the people of Prestonpans?
The play is directed by Malcolm who works in Blockbuster shop, ex PL student, so you can't get more local than than. The cast is a mixture of local and professional. I don't know how much it costs. The ticket price goes all back to Arts Society. The Arts Society is a charity. The Goth employs 28 staff, 90% are local, 95% of profits goes back into the charity to fund future projects within the area. The aim is to raise awreness of the history and creative talent of Prestonpans.

True there were alot of inocent lives taken however there really are evil witches, they may not fly on brooms, or wear black hats but they are real.

No, I had not heard this, but if you learn how many of these people were tortured, it is truly horrible and cruel.
