Yes, but it depends on what you call witchcraft?

At the Burning Times any lady, and some men, were accounted witches just because they had "forbidden" knowledge or had a skill that jealous thugs thought should be banned. In modern times the term witchcraft is a Practitioner of Crafts. An Engineer or Scientist could easily be considered a practitioner of the dark arts. After all bio warfare is a very dark art. Those that attempt to mitigate such evil are considered to practice the "white" art but are no less a Practitioner of the the Craft.

The way some of us define witchcraft in modern terms is one that is involved in New Learning and are Free Thinkers. And, Dear God, we NEED all we can get! The Practice involves going into a state where the Dreams Live. We take our Problems to the Other World and see if we can contact our Other Self for a Resolution to the Problem. Some call this Insight, Gut Feeling, Inspiration, or a Vision.

What the Practitioner attempts to do is to bring this World closer to the Other World to get a Solution. An Engineer working at IBM may take walks outside the complex to "gather their thoughts".

Witchcraft IS the Witch, or Warlock, Invoking the Powers to obtain a Result!

Make no doubt, that any modern technology or science IS the Craft. Each Practitioner give themselves TOTALLY to their Craft and Deity. Any, Church service is bound to the Craft. Prayers for "Guidance" and "Acceptance" are all part of the Craft!

Now, we should ask, "Does witchcraft" believe in us? This is a VERY serious question that DEMANDS and answer. The Rabi's question, "Why are YOU?" is just another way of asking the same thing. Doubts?

The Craft does not suffer the retard well. While some can gain a bit of the Knowledge, it takes DEDICATION to the ART of the Craft! This means that if some idiot goes into the backyard and creates a supper version of a Class 4 virus and
