"WITCHES..AND A CRANKY OLE GUY"

Back In 1692.... To 1693..... In Salem Massachusetts....More Than 200 People Were Accused Of Being Involved With Witch Craft ....Or Were Accused Of Being Witches..................In 1692...Three Girls..The Reverend Parris' Daughter...Elizabeth...Aged 9... And His Niece..Abigail Williams..Age 11...And Another Girl.....Anne Putnam..Age 11...Starting Making Strange Noises .... Contorting Them Selves...And Speaking Strangely

A Local Doctor Of The Time..Blamed It All... On The Super Natural
The Three Young Girls....Under Continuous Pressure From The Towns Magistrate... Blamed Three Other Women For Their Actions...Saying...These Women Were Witches......And Had Cast Spells Upon Them
In Short.,,,Before It Was All Over...20 People Were Executed For The Charge Of Witch Craft
19 Of These.... Were Executed... By Hanging
The 20th?...An Elderly Man.... "Giles Corry"......Was Crushed To Death With Heavy Stones...Why?
Because He Had Refused To Even Enter A Guilty Plea.... Or Innocent Plea

With Research Through Out Time ..Up To Our Present Day
Researchers Were Able To Pin Point The Actual Cause Of Why...The Three Girls Acted In This Way

In The Making Of Bread In Those days...The Using Of Rye..To Make Bread....Also Came With A Fungus Of Which...............Then..................They Knew Nothing About

This Fungus.... Called... "Ergot" ...When Consumed..... Can Cause
Hallucinations...Irrational Behavior.....Convulsions.... And..... Even Death
20 People Died..All Because Of..................... An Unknown Fungus


Note
I Had To Change Part Of The Title Because Of Cranky Olde Guy...Who Demanded...Through His Complete Aggravation.... To Be A Part Of The Subject
His Wish...Was My Command

WITCH is but a word/name... nothing else, nothing more.

Haven't a clue who those ladies are Nam but WITCH is nothing but a made up name, there is no such thing as witch craft... scold
Itchy's alright, but all the other witches should be burnt or drowned, probably both. Its for the greater good.

Does it matter if someone studies witchcraft? Its all about a person's beliefs. I know I'll get bashed for posting this but I think its all about a person't beliefs.

its better you walking into things than me hiding behind them because you did blushing
That is a serious oversimplification of what happened during the Salem Witch Trials. I'm not sure Ergot had all that much to do with it. It was more like greed and the thrill of celebrity.

I promised myself never to deal with you again - BUT - the symptoms were NO way near extreme enough in the Salem situation for Rye Blight to be the answer. I am seriously bothered by these instant scholars whose only talent is doing Google Searches.

All kinds of plants produce alkaloids as a defense against insects. Low and behold alkaloids are none too good for humans. Unlike protein based drugs like neurotoxins, they do not break down easily with heat, meaning you can cook them into some real "killer" bread.

I got news for you, the internet is NOT the be all and end all of all knowledge. A lot it is written by ill educated, misinformed so called geniuses.

I suggest you join Mr Trump's procession if you want spread Bad Science.
