Answer:
From a religious point of view, witch hunting was justified by the belief that witches served the devil and everything associated with the devil should be stopped.

Explanation:
There was, in Europe, the belief that witches were women who received demonic spirits, did jobs for the devil on earth, besides promoting all kinds of atrocities in the world.

This supported witch hunting and allowed anyone (especially women) who was tried for witchcraft to be harshly punished, often with torture and death.
