Burn the witch? Seriously?

It would seem that Catholics in England aren't quite over their witch hunting past- yesterday, a Catholic protest group rampaged through Glastonbury, vowing to "cleanse" the area of witches. The ragtag inquisition marched through town pelting pagans and magick shops with salt while chanting "burn the witch" and other endearing slogans.

Glastonbury has become over the years a very popular with pagans, and is believed by many to be the location of the legendary isle of Avalon.

Sadder still are the thousands of congolese children forced into the streets by witchcraft fears.
