These witches/wizards were communicating to the devil, even taking care of the baby of devil. Puritans believed satan exists because there were things that they could not imagine to happen. Such as mental health issues, and natural disasters, they blamed it on the devil. Any bad fortune even just illness was caused by devil.

Crucible is a pot in which metals or other substances are melted. When these substances are melted, all the foreign substances rise up as bubble, the blacksmith take that part out in the process. Arthur Miller named this play "The Crucible," because he wanted to purify the substance, which is America. When things are heated up, they let out all the bad stuff. With this idea, Arthur Miller titled the play during the time of witch hunt of communists.

Puritans had a belief that there are already a destination for each person, either go to heaven or hell. The chosen ones to go to heaven are called "elect" and people who are not "elect" cannot be saved to go to heaven even with good works. Good work in life cannot save himself to go to heaven. There was no way to figure out if one is "elect" or not, so most puritans pretended that they are the "elect." The limited atonement is the idea that Jesus came to this world in order to save sinners, but only the "elect." Bible does not teach this limited atonement, Christ came down as a human being in order to save everyone, without any separations.

Puritan teens were absolutely bored. In the community within the puritans, teenagers were less important than others. These teens had nothing to do  except reading the Bible. There were no phone, CD, TV. This is how teenagers were interested in what "witch" was saying to them. It was very interesting for them to just listen to what "witch" had to say to them even though they knew it was not true. Further in the history, teenage girls are the cause of this massive witch hunt crisis.

Puritans believed that water was pure and rejects evil. When one person is accused to be a witch, people throw the accused in the river because they thought witches will rise on the river, but the innocent will sink. But because this was not true many people were drowned and it was not important to the one who accused. It showed how they were not aware of the real problem within the community.
