Wiccan Website from the Mists of Time
Description:
Wiccan Research and Resource Website for the Serious Student! Laws are tools which people use to bring order out of chaos, yet still retain the Beliefs, Teachings, and Traditions of the People whom those Laws represent. These works I am submitting have been written, rewritten, and compiled from the Teachings, Traditions, and Essence of the Original Laws [as I understand them] - as applied to this day and age in order to enhance the basic teaching patterns already set into motion. Recognizing the diversity of traditions and teachings of our people working together in harmony, strength, and wisdom for the present and future generations to come!

Paganism and the History of Social and Religious Intolerance! This section is over twenty two chapters long, so please bookmark this page in case you get lost. It provides an in depth coverage of definitions, dates, references, and bibliographies pertaining to paganism that I feel is necessary for students who wish to understand and study a more complete balanced world view of past and present History of social and religious patterns.
