Are You Serious?
In the "Christian" era, there were still farmers engaged in Pagan Rituals such as the Broomstick Dance?
When you come into the land that the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominable practices of those nations. Deuteronomy 8:9
"The earliest known image of witches on brooms dates to 1451,
when two illustrations appeared in the French poet Martin Le Franc’s manuscript Le Champion des Dames (The Defender of Ladies).The association between witches and brooms may have roots in a pagan fertility ritual, in which rural farmers would leap and dance astride poles, pitchforks or brooms in the light of the full moon to encourage the growth of their crops.
This “broomstick dance" became confused with common accounts of witches flying through the night on their way to orgies and other illicit meetings." History
BTW.....Disney has the Broomstick Dance for your children --- in the
"Christian" era too.... in the 21st century---"The Broomstick Dance" is a song from the Sofia the First episode, "Cauldronation Day" and is sung by Sofia, Lucinda, Lily, Indigo, and many other unnamed witches." wikiDisney
