Matriarchy which was a world ruled by old knowledge passed from generation to generation only visually and orally, a world where everybody worked together for survival was slowly been substituted by patriarchate. Kill old lore's and take over with new promises of a better life by man kind. The power of the woman was stepped on by the church, which kill them accusing them of sorcery. All Goddesses were abolished, all Gods became only Idles and the belief on one only God and men created after his image took over. People's need for spirituality was put on a way way street directed only to a male God spiritual image. The image of the woman symbolized and adored as the bearer of
life was soon to disappear. Women were abated as inferiors and the male world took supremacy. The male world could never take the power of life bearing away from women. The seed of a man is a total waste without the fertile ground of a woman's womb. The abatement of women by the church created a world of confused corruption, abuse and disarray.
The woman figure represented by Virgin Mary, mother of all, is still adored. It can never be killed for without a mother there will be no children. Mother are the ones who keep the family together, provides and cares and educates. It is a fact when fathers die families keeps going but, when mothers die families disintegrate.

What Happened
From the middle ages the church undertook to destroy the Witches because they were a demonstration survival of Paganism. It was assisted in this by those exercising the medical profession that considered witches the worse enemy in their economic field. The witch woman of great knowledge was always called as midwife and had the reputation of easing child birth. Such action for men of the church was against the will of God. Suspect was handedness of midwife accused of being the main enemy of the faith, to kill children, provide them to the devil, to cause infertility and impotence.
Widespread kind of witch-midwife and inquisition opinion was then behind each midwife could conceal a witch.
It is difficult to estimate the numbers of victims. Some sources speak of thousands, others of millions of dead. Most of the victims were exclusively women.
The churches changed society that recognized the role of motherhood as a power and where they were many goddesses (Goddess of earth, moon goddess, great mother goddess etc.) to a rational and scientific society.
