And some still have such laws on the books. The Crafts and some Circles survived in secret, but most of the "witchcraft" books published in the 18th to 20th centuries were written by biased Christians. Hand to hand and hand written or H3 was rule for bringing forward true knowledge of the crafts during that dark, but not murderous time. In the USA it was more a "look away lawman, while us good citizens get rid of the Witch." This was very prevalent in rural communities and even in some written rural law, and also in some cities statutes. All craft activity was prosecuted under Fraud and extortion laws, stores carrying Pagan supplies lost licenses and many times leases.

As I have said for years, in 400 years, we have gone from PROSECUTED to PERSECUTED. Maybe in another 400 years we will be allowed to live in peace.
