Abstract
The three separate AskWhy! websites, at Blogspot (askwhyblogger.blogspot.com), Wordpress (mikemagee.wordpress.com), and the main one at AskWhy! (askwhy.co.uk) have been aggregated at Yahoo pipes and piped here in descending order of publication. The longer essay length articles are on the main website, and the other two are essentially political and religious commentary respectively.

Before you go, think about this…
Some again will object and say, If Witches cannot kill, and do many strange things by Witchcraft, why have many confessed that they have done such Murthers, and other strange matters, whereof they have been accused? To this I answer, If Adam and Eve in their innocency were so easily overcome, and tempted to sin, how much more may poor Creatures now after the Fall, by persuasions, promises, and threatenings, by keeping from sleep, and continual torture, be brought to confess that which is false and impossible, and contrary to the faith of a Christian to believe? Thomas Ady, A Candle in the Dark (1656)
