At least 200 women were burnt at stake due to one obsessed psychopath in the church. Definitely, he is burning for longer period of indefinite time.

The same thing happened here in Salem, Massachusetts in 1692.

Yes, the source book was written in 1487 in Germany and psyhopaths, born in different times and different geographic areas connected by church, used the same book source Malleus Maleficarum as clarification of their deviations.

The Salem Witch trials were the grandest miscarriages of justice on record. They weren't actually witches, but falsely accused. They were hanged anyway. Many of them later where proven to be law-abiding Christians.

Really? I've studied it at nauseam and visited Salem, MA to see the torture chambers that are still there now. It was horrifying!

Jean DĀ“Arc was also proclaimed to be witch. Soon after she helped French King to gain his crown. The question always was - Which Witch.
