If you hear the word witch you may think of Salem Massachusetts in the 1600's but when I hear the word witch I think of the children of Esit Eket, Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria that are being labeled as witches by false prophets now.

NOWADAYS WE GET INFORMED ABOUT THINGS WE WOULD NEVER WOULD KNOW IF THERE WAS NOT THE MEDIA AND INTERNET. MANY OF THESE THINGS ARE NOT NEW BUT APPEAR LIKE GETTING WORSE (WHICH DOESN'T MEAN THAT THINGS ARE NOT GETTING WORSE IN MANY WAYS). WE MUST ACCEPT THAT THE MAJORITY OF HUMANS IS PRETTY LOW AND NEEDS URGENTLY EDUCATION. AS OUR OWN SOCIETY LOOKS LIKE IT IS MAKING A REVERSE PROGRESS THERE IS NOT MUCH CHANCE FOR SUCH EDUCATION. ANOTHER ASPECT IS THE FACT THAT EVIL ON OUR PLANET IS GROWING LIKE NEVER BEFORE.

I DID NOT UNDERSTAND THE CONNECTION NAZI GERMANY - CHILD ABUSE. SORRY! THE REASON WHY THE MASSES DO NOT MIND IS SIMPLY EGOISM AND THE FACT THAT PEOPLE OFTEN HAVE VERY MUCH TO CARE ABOUT THEIR OWN CONCERNS.

These prophets are false prophets.. you cannot just label someone a witch, especially children.. a true man of God would cousnel and love these children and help them through any issues... just as Jesus would.. you can always tell a person by the fruit he bears and these prophets are a true example.... they don't have any.. let alone the fruit of love and compassion...

I must add that many Africans are Catholic and the Vatican is telling them that condomns don't work to prevent aids!! The vatican does not want them using any form of birth control. Hmmmmmmm. I wonder, bring these poor children into the world to torture them or not bring them into the world of insanity, evil and greed? You decide. Nothing is new. Greed is destroying this world. Greed is the evil in this country Africa as well as the USA.

You would think that in the 21st Century, anything to do with with witchcraft would've been long gone. Enter Nigeria, Africa; and, you're taken way back to the Dark Ages.

At least attention is being brought to this undesirable event. The way news such as this travels thru the internet, sooner or later... hopefully sooner, individuals with appropiate connections will join in the cause for positive results. Its out in the open now, so it can no longer be ignored
