Our reading this evening is issued with a rare "Heartbreak Warning" It tells the story of how one young man's obsession influenced the governing of his country, and gave unchecked power to the courts who worked in partnership with the church in order to ruin the lives of countless innocent people, primarily women, by first accusing them of witchcraft, then capturing and torturing them- and then ultimately murdering them. The story is true and the victims deserve our attention, our respect, and an effort to prevent this and similar actions from ever happening again. The story contains the brutal facts about the torture that was inflicted upon those who suffered. May they rest in peace.
