Description
"Today people have the freedom to practice their religions, and this has been extended to modern witches, who are free to practice Wicca, which they regard as their religion, without persecution, while televisions shows, such as 'Buffy the Vampire-Slayer' and 'Sabrina the Teenage Witch, have come to be accepted as entertainment, almost without comment. For those who practiced witchcraft in the past, however, it would have meant immediate arrest, torture and trial, followed by a gruesome and agonizing death. In Europe alone, over a period of 200 years, more than 200,000 witches were mutilated, strangled or burned, while the frenzied urge to hunt them down spread like wildfire throughout the world" -- inside cover.
