The Puritans Holy=Servitude Fire & Brimstone Work & God One of the most strict religions ever formed. Left Europe to form their own colony where sin was not allowed.

Lifestyle of a Puritan Rise and pray Work Go to church Work Pray Sleep

Brightly colored clothing Making yourself pretty Being individual Music Dancing Gathering of women Working on Sunday (praying and reading- Bible ONLY) No-no’s in Puritan Life

The targeted… The Midwives –Too much power for a woman –Men not included The Gypsies The Poets The Jews The Old Women The wives of men with property

Reasons for the Spread Ergot Poisoning Financial gain Fear of God Lust Old rivalries Property ownerships Revenge

“Whether the Belief that there are such Beings as Witches is so Essential a Part of the Catholic Faith that Obstinacy to maintain the Opposite Opinion manifestly savours of Heresy”

In other words... Christians believe in witches, that explains the evils that happen to them To not believe in witches is going against your religion (a.k.a. heresy)

“HUNTS” note the difference! Regardless of your confession, you were burned Trials were NOT necessary Often used inhuman torture devices –Skin the witch alive –Spear the witch from legs to top of head, then burn the body rotisserie style

Less trials more hunting... Malleus Maleficarum –Written by two ministers –Science not known; make sense of the unknown; embellish –Used on every judge’s bench –Many owned it –How to spot a witch! –What witches were capable of...

Things that the Malleus says: Women are prone to be witches –Fragile, weak minded, easily corrupted –Made from Adam’s rib, therefore bent –Ambitious women = evil –Midwives plan what babies are born dead and then sacrifice them to the devil –Witches steal “members” to get back at lost loves

What happened to the “witches”? TORTURE –Hanging –Burning –Thumb Screws –Spanish boots –“The Rack” Whatever would make them admit their “guilt”

Why would people do this? If you could persecute another person, would you? Why? How far would you go to save your own skin? The Puritans claimed themselves to be the purest of the pure, the quintessence of virtue—how did a society built on faith turn against each other?
