xenophobic Christian propaganda

nowhere on the details page could I find an indication that this book was from the perspective of not only Christianity, but that anything that is magic is drawing power from the Christian devil and is thus inherently evil.

I had to go to the author's page and look at the other titles to see that they were correctly sorted into Christianity, whereas this one is categorized as "Other religions, practices, and sacred texts"! Sacred. Texts. and this book has thoroughly mischaracterized Satanism as well, which isn't *surprising* but it does show how little critical thought went into this.

I'm not a practicing witch myself, but that's part of why I thought this would be a useful resource-- I'm doing research for writing project(s), trying to be sure that I don't botch my representation of the beliefs & practices of wiccans and other modern witches.

this book, however, is only a useful resource if I want to go into depth on the kind of slander pagans now & historically have had to endure.
