How can you identify a witch?

1 Throw her off a cliff. If she is a witch she will use her magic to fly and save herself. Burning the body isn't necessary as death from falling has shown she was not a witch after all.

2 Strap her to a chair and dunk her repeatedly into a river until she drowns. If she is a witch she will confess (she can't fly away here since she is tied to a chair). Once a confession is heard, execution by flames is the only way to destroy the evil soul. Otherwise she will reincarnate as a witch in another body.

Identification is obtained by pointing your finger at the ugliest old hag in the town to blame after something bad happens such as the crops doing badly that year.

if you fall in love with a witch how can you be sure you're not being tricked with a love potion?

Ask her how she would feel if she hadn't eaten a child's liver for breakfast.

The witch is the archetype of the threatening pariah.
Semiotically witches are linked with poisons and plots, as their outcast status forces them to rely on underhanded means to achieve their goals, i.e. witchcraft, which in primitive superstitions is analogous to applied chemistry and cultural psychology.
The concept of the witch is a lesson unto itself; embittered outsiders are dangerous and potentially malicious
But also the witch represents a subversion of the social order, and often a violation of the broader society's sacred principles.
So, if you want to find a witch, look for an embittered loner, who is also a malcontent, and is a specialist in some little understood field.

I bet this thread is crawling with potential witches.

I ask Fr. Matt if he thinks she’s a witch and if yes I burn her at the stake.

I mean it's not hard...

If they smell of garlic and rancid piss, that's surely a guess you can not miss!

Alternatively the more subtle ones do shit that while not really subtle is like "oh no several friends and family members just got found dead in the tool shed"

The traditional way is to see if they sink.

Lots of silver jewellery, big hair, thick caked-on makeup.

That's just a whore, not a witch!
