Answer
Witch trials were a major concern for Bodin and his contemporaries, as they were believed to be a threat to both the moral and religious fabric of society. Bodin, in particular, saw witchcraft as a form of treason against God and the state, and he argued that witches should be punished severely to deter others from engaging in such practices.
