    What are Witches? Oct 26, 2026
    Show notes

    The connection between Christianity and witches is primarily one of conflict, as mainstream Christian theology considers witchcraft an abomination based on biblical prohibitions against sorcery and divination. However, the relationship is also complex, with some individuals identifying as "Christian witches" who believe witchcraft and Christian faith can be compatible, while others see witchcraft as a practice separate from religion. Historically, there are instances of both persecution and folk magic that incorporated Christian elements. E246.

    On 24 October 1964, Pope Paul VI officially consecrated the newly rebuilt basilica of the Abbey of Monte Cassino after it was destroyed during World War II. He consecrated the restored abbey church and declared St. Benedict the patron saint of Europe. Following its destruction by Allied bombing on 15 February 1944, massive reconstruction of the Benedictine monastery began under Abbot Ildefonso Rea, aiming to recreate the historic structure designed by Cosimo Fanzago. October 24 is also recognized in the liturgical calendar as the feast day of Saint Marcius of Monte Cassino.
