The English have always loved a good witch hunt...

Post by accelafine »

(didn't they invent them?), and the modern equivalent of the public hanging, drawing and quartering of Prince Andrew is no exception.
The pommy pitchforks are sharpened up and the flaming torches are ablaze on Xtwitter.
There is a delightful piece by Giles Farnaby in the Virginal Book called Tower Hill. It's a jolly, happy-sounding piece which is quite at odds with its name. There's a good reason for this. 'Tower Hill' is where men like Prince Andrew were hanged, drawn and quartered. It was a joyous occasion. Whole families would have a jolly day out to enjoy the festivities when there was going to be a display of slow disembowelment and castration-- hence the happy, upbeat character of the piece. What fun!
So here's to you, English folk. Happy disembowelment day.

So answer the question,
Witches were persecuted for what they did not do.
How does that compare with someone being disciplined for what they did do, shit for brains.

You must think that King Charles is privy to less information than yourself. How magnanimous of you. Try reading the headlines.

Are you claiming a senior moment, loss of memory?

Keep going, you can do it, then what did I say? More importantly, who asked the first question which you refused to answer?

Now, if you are having a problem, reread the post, and remember why you cut and run and spit the posts up.

You must have been in cognitive decline since birth.

Recheck the actual posting, and see if you can do anything about your wandering off into delusions.

Actually 'witches' were persecuted for what they did, a lot of the time. People believed in witches back then, including 'witches'. So if you believed yourself to be a witch, and did 'witchy' things, then for all intents and purposes you were a 'witch'.
