Atheists Association Seeks Law Against Witchcraft
Former Indian Medical Association (IMA) vice-president and noted medical science writer Samaram on Saturday stressed there should be a collective effort from all quarters to address the issue of 'Banamathi' (sorcery).

Speaking at the three-day world atheist conference, he said 'banamathi' was claiming lives of scores of people across the country.

Andhra Shradha Nirmulam Samithi Pune president Dr Rajendra Kankariya said legal action was needed to protect the common people against customs thriving on ignorance, such as black magic, witchcraft and sorcery

Well, those crazy Indians.... I wonder if this would also include LDS Priesthood. After all isn't the priesthood sort of like "white magic" ? The church has a pretty good toe hold in india doesn't it. This type of ban would make things a bit difficult for the church wouldn't it?

Provision of health facilities and drinking water to rural areas would help ward off blind beliefs. Superstitions and ignorance were responsible for nurturing witchcraft.

Do they use seer stones to find lost treasure and translate golden books? I think we should not judge these rural ignoramuses, for any one of them could be a prophet in training, and who are we to judge their superstitions as naught in the eyes of GOD.

The real reason they want to ban witchcraft:

Dr Shades, I reviewed the forum rules I don't see where they prohibit it. Maybe you could explane why your MAD. The pictures I have posted are not slanderous, are not vulgar. They accurately portrey the subject shown. These are images that are readily available on the internet. The images portrey things that occur every day all over the world, except of coarse on Sunday. Maybe the rules need to be updated and made more MAD like, it that what you want?

LOL. I kept expecting Conan to charge into the picture and chop off that sorcerer's head. Or Indiana Jones.
