Brothers and Sisters,
I appreciate and respect that you are attempting to use logic to explain a non-logical (intuitive) worldview (that being witchcraft). It is somewhat hypocritical but Ill go with it.
But again, ever since Cobott and the Witches League of Public Awareness (WLPA headed up by the Governor Michael Dukakis) have tried to put a pretty Westernized slant on Witchcraft, you up and coming low grades are swallowing it like they cannot in anyway be wrong.
The WLPA and some other groups were outraged during the Witchcraft murders/sacrifices in the late 1980s. Cobott tried to sue the press for libel because it was bad PR.
Such as the 8 fold path of Witchcraft. Though you may not be part of the Alexandrian Rite, I would think you would respect Gerald Gardner since he is the Father of Modern Wicca/Witchcraft: In the Alexandrian Book of Shadows there is the list of the 8 fold path.
1) Trance
2) Drugs, Wine, etc
3) Music, Dance
4) Rites, Spells, Incantations
5) The Great Rite (ritual sex)
6) Scourging
7) The Cords (ceremonial binding)
8) Mediation
There so much evil here I dont know where to start. Two witches that pissed off the Witches for revealing all that goes on in various grades were: Gavin and Yvone Front (THE WITCHS BIBLE). I encourage you all to check this out if you havent already and read it.
The term White Witch is a 17th century term and modern witchcraft today CANNOT be traced back beyond the 14-15th century A.D. (See Henry Leas work on the History of Witchcraft).
Not to mention that Dr. Margaret Murray (The Gods of the Witches) ADMITS that the black goat (which she related to as the concept of the devil) was worshipped often in older witchcraft.
As I promised, the word Witch (I study languages) is from the Old English wicce (Wicca comes from this word as well). It means to bend. It later became to mean Wicked or Wizard. The Cobott goons want to say it originally meant a Wise One but this is not the case in terms of etymology. The very word Witch (historically) is a bent wicked person.
Though I know not all witches practice magic(k), most dictionaries and encyclopedias contribute witchcraft with black magic or the black art.
My point is that historically it has meant evil. Thus logically what it worships (the ultimate source god) is evil as well.

The church of Satan has always referred to its female members as Witches (see his book on the Satanic Witch). Crowleys Aiwaas in some way or the other has been passed down among many Witches. Perhaps yourself without knowing it (Im speaking of sexually obviously.)
And finally, my very own rare and signed copy of : Missa Niger by Aubrey Melech has a section on the Witches Sabbat and even has a picture/plate of two witches during the Black Mass prepared to sacrifice the baby. Melech documents this. And of course Dr. Murray (whom you witches love) admits that the eating of babies flesh was common among you witches for immortality.
Daemon est Deus Inversus
In the higher levels, this is the face of Witchcraft. History is on my side and evil glares from its pages for those who are brave enough to admit it.
