While "modern
witches" may deny the ritual of animal or human
sacrifices in their "religion", there is much evidence
to the contrary. There are numerous websites addressing
the issue in which the authors give the "resounding"
answer, "No." They claim this common phrase, 'An it
harm none, do what ye will'; in other words, 'Do what
you believe is right, but let no one be harmed by your
actions.' They will also claim that Wiccans believe in
the sanctity of all life.
"There is enough evidence
that we can say the ancient Celts did practice
and perform some form of human sacrifice. There
is a great deal of evidence that these
sacrifices were both voluntary and involuntary
in nature and that the sacrificed were
intermediaries that took the petitions of their
people directly before the gods of their clan.
In another mythology one person's life is
sacrificed so that a noble member of hierarchy
would be healed of his terminal illness, thus
showing a belief that one sacrificed would give
way for another to be saved."
note:
Supposedly, the vaccines that contain residual
components of cells from human aborted fetal tissue are
manufactured and injected into children for the sake of
saving lives.
There are
also examples in the Bible of human sacrifices detested
by God:
"And he caused
his children to pass through the fire in the
valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed
times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft,
and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards:
he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to
provoke him to anger." -2nd Chronicles 33:6
The "valley of the
son of Hinnom," located south of Jerusalem, where the
filth and dead animals of the city were cast out and
burned; It was the city garbage dump. Unbelievably,
the Moloch religion required parents to sacrifice their
children upon the fiery arms of Moloch.
Jeremiah
19:5-5
They
have also built the high places of Baal, to burn
their sons with fire for burnt offerings to Baal,
which I never commanded nor spoke, nor did it come
into My mind. Therefore, behold, the days come, says
Jehovah, that this place shall no more be called
Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but,
The Valley of Slaughter.
This was repeated again in
Jeremiah 32:35
The ancient city
of Carthage was the capital of the Phoenician empire.
Recent archaeological expeditions have discovered the
high incidence of child sacrifice. Archaeological relics
have been uncovered, such as the altars on which
children were sacrificed and stone markers, which marked
the burial place of the remains. Stone carvings on the
markers depict children who were sacrificed. Clay jars
were used to hold the remains. Entire burial grounds
full of these slaughtered children have been uncovered.
The Carthaginians
were descendants of the ancient Canaanites and
worshipped the same god, Baal or Molech. Archaeologists
have established that the primary deity that they
children were sacrificed to was the goddess Tanet, the
name being a regional representation of the more
universal Ashteroth. Archaeologists continue to unearth
bodies of children who were sacrificed. Written accounts
tell us that the priests of Baal would beat drums during
the ritual of sacrifice in order to drown out the cries
of the crying mothers.
As the Isrealites
conquered nations in order to take over the land which
God had promised to them, they were commanded not to
even let a "witch" to live. The witches referred to
were those who made human sacrifices.
Human sacrifices
were also performed by many others:
Aztecs
practiced a religious ritual of human
sacrifice. The Aztecs, from ancient times to
the 1500s, may have sacrificed more people to
their gods than any other culture in human
history.
When the
great temple was dedicated in 1487, priests
sacrificed thousands of people in a single day.
The Aztecs sacrificed to all the gods and
goddesses often through bloodletting on the
heights of the pyramids.
One
account by a Spanish conquistador tells of a
skull rack containing 136,000 heads of victims
who had been ritually murdered
The sacred
scriptures of the Hindus, the Vedas, spoke of
the desire of the gods for human sacrifice: "The
sacrificer will sacrifice a man first for man is
the first of all animals. Thus he slaughters the
victim according to its form and according to
its excellence" (Shatapata Veda).
-
Celtic and Germanic Tribes of northern
Europe.
The
ancestors of English and German speaking peoples
- were barbaric, pagan idolaters who sacrificed
their own children to the Mother Goddess. Child
sacrifice and abortion were practiced and were
accepted as facts of everyday life - the
necessary consummation of rampant sexual
immorality.

"If
women were in charge, abortion would be a
sacrament, an occasion of deep and serious
and sacred meaning."
Carter Heyward, an
ordained Episcopal priest who has been
active for many years in the feminist
movement |
All this is still
going on in the popular form of abortion. The claim has
also been made that Wiccans do not promote abortion.
In the book, "The Sacrament of Abortion" by Ginnette
Paris (A renound Wiccan) a few statements are made in
approval of abortion:
"I have drawn inspiration
throughout this book from a guiding image, the
Artemis of Greek mythology (known to the Romans as
Diana, the Huntress). She is an untamed Goddess, a
champion of what we would think of today as
ecological values ... her myth is full of what
appears to be the same kinds of contradictions that
abound in considerations of abortion. Artemis is
both protector of wild animals and a hunter who
kills them with unerring aim..." (p. 1)
"The same goddess thus
offers protection and also death to women, children,
and animals. Why these apparent contradictions ...
personified in a feminine divinity? Is it a way of
saying that a woman's protective power cannot
function properly if she does not also possess full
power, namely, the power over death as well as life?
Her image belongs to us as well as to antiquity,
because like all fundamental images of the human
experience, which C.G. Jung called 'archetypes,' she
never really ages but reappears in different forms
and different symbols ... She encourages us to
become more aware of the power of death, its
inescapable nature, and its necessary role in a
living ecology.
Abortion is about love, life, and death."
(p. 2)
"The collective
unconscious has always used different ways to reduce
the population when resources and space are lacking
or when the social climate deteriorates." (p. 26)
"Artemis had a reputation
for liking bloody sacrifices, including human ones
... a practice that has given paganism such a bad
name.... The story of Artemis claiming Iphigena as a
sacrifice can be told and understood in more than
one way ... in one, Iphigenia is a victim, offered
in sacrifice on the altar of Artemis; in the other
Iphigenia becomes a heroine, and sacrifice takes on
a different meaning. Since abortion is a kind of
sacrifice, I believe an exploration of this myth may
open up fresh avenues of thought." (p. 34)
"From a pagan point of
view, it is quite stupid and even absurd to
sacrifice a mother for the sake of a newborn,
because the child obviously needs her ... Artemis,
who personifies respect for animal life, accepts the
necessity of the hunt, but only if the rules and the
absolving rituals are observed. In most Goddess
religions a similar reasoning is applied to the
fetus and the newborn.
It
is morally acceptable that a woman who gives life
may also destroy life under certain circumstances
..." (p. 53)
"Our attitudes toward
abortion are subconsciously stamped by
Judeo-Christian values, even among those people who
consider themselves completely liberated from them.
We are now on the threshold of a liberalization of
attitude toward abortion in many ways comparable to
the freeing up of sexual attitudes thirty years
ago." (p. 5)
"Abraham's bloodthirsty
God had been encouraging human sacrifice long enough
for the patriarch to believe that the offering of
his only son would be pleasing to Him ... When he
restrains Abraham's arm, Jehovah states that he
doesn't want to be honored in that way any more:
this scene marks an evolution in Judeo-Christian
mythology." (p. 37)
"Paganism was discredited
by the image of an innocent child being dragged by
evil pagans to an altar to be sacrificed to a cruel
female Goddess, as if God hadn't also demanded the
sacrifice and crucifixion of his only son." (p. 41)
"Judeo-Christian mythology
has had the major influence on our Western culture
for over two thousand years, providing the ideas,
values, and symbolic images. Can we erase two
thousand years of monotheistic influence by dropping
all religious practice and declaring ourselves free
of our parents' faith? Certainly not as has been
proved by our sudden awakening to ecological values.
We're only beginning to understand how a religion
which strips nature of its sacredness so as to place
everything sacred in one God (whose realm is not of
this world) can be dangerous to trees, animals,
oceans, forests, and body-consciousness, all of
which were considered receptacles of the divine in
polytheistic antiquity." (p. 4)
"...there is more than one
way to define morality, human dignity, children's
rights, and the collective responsibility for life
and death issues. It is also clear that all of this
is intimately connected with global ecology." (p. 6)
"...we must constantly
monitor the values attached to shame, as we educate
the next generation, so that it can be put aside
when it no longer expresses our ideals... "When
an abortion is necessary, not only should there be
no shame but there should be a new consensus that to
have a child who cannot adequately be cared for is
shameful." (p.106)
"It
is not immoral to choose abortion; it is simply
another kind of morality, a pagan one.
It is time to stop being defensive about it, time to
point an accusatory finger at the other camp and
denounce its own immoral stance." (p. 56)
"As Artemis might kill a
wounded animal rather than allow it to limp along
miserably, so a mother wishes to spare the child a
painful destiny." (p. 56)
"... men who decide
whether or not to kill in war then dare to talk
about crime and murder when a woman sacrifices a
fetus no bigger than a raisin and less conscious
than a chicken.... The
beings sacrificed in abortions
do not suffer as do the victims of war and
ecological disaster.... War is sanctified ... by our
religious leaders. But let a woman decide to abort a
fetus that doesn't even have the neurological
apparatus to register suffering, and people are
shocked." (p. 25)
"It's rare for a woman to
choose abortion because in some way she dislikes the
fetus. She sacrifices it for the sake of something
she judges at this moment to be more important,
whether it be her existing children ... or her own
physical, economic, or psychological survival, or
the fate of the planet." (p. 95)
"This same quality allows
us to visualize a world of increasing respect for
children, a world in which one can occasionally
resort to abortion when it is necessary to sacrifice
the fetus to a higher cause, namely, the love of
children and the refusal to see them suffer." (p.
107)
"Some values are worth the
sacrifice ... Abortion always has been and continues
to be another way of choosing death over life." (p.
51)
"... the return of the
ancient Goddess Artemis invites us to imagine a new
allocation of life and death powers between men and
women, and allocation that allows men to appreciate
the cost of a life and women to make decisions based
on their mother-knowledge." (p. 27)
"One must preserve in
one's self ... an intact strength, inviolable and
radically feminine; this is the Artemesian part of
the anima which guards the untamed zone of our
psyche, without which we risk becoming
over-domesticated human beings, too easily
touchable." (p. 107)
"Obviously, everyone has a
right to his or her religious beliefs, but what if
mine are Pagan?" (p. 57)
"Our culture needs new
rituals as well as laws to restore abortion to its
sacred dimension, which is both terrible and
necessary." (p. 92)
"Abortion is a sacrifice
to Artemis. Abortion as a sacrament for the gift of
life to remain pure." (p. 107)
A final word:
"All flesh is as grass,
And all the glory of man as the flower of the grass.
The grass withers, And its flower falls away, but
the word of the Lord endures forever." Now this is
the word which by the gospel was preached to you. (1
Pet. 1:24, 25)
Notice how she
deceitfully implies a difference between human sacrifice
and blantant murder. The implication of I Peter, as all
Christians should know, is not the justification of
human sacrafice. But the very fact that the human flesh
has it's natural "shelf life". Eventually our bodies
will turn back into the dust of the earth. Yet, in
contrast, the Word of the Lord and His love for us
endures. Never changing and never diminishing.
The Open Circle
(the Wiccan newsletter) recruited volunteers
("abortion clinic defenders") to work magic around the
property of the abortion clinic of Melbourne, FL and
rallied Wiccans for pro abortion demonstrations.
Readers of Open
Circle were encouraged to become "clinic escorts" who
escort pregnant women entering the abortion clinic.
These clinic "escorts" distract the women from pro-life
sidewalk counselors trying to hand out literature and
counsel women not to have an abortion. Readers of Open
Circle were also encouraged to help fund the South
Brevard National Organization of Woman's program to help
low income women have abortions.
Wiccans are also
encouraged to work their magic on the area surrounding
the clinic: "Finally, many individuals and groups have
been helping to magically (sic) protect the building and
property ... This has been done by magical and psychic
shielding being put on and around the property...."
The following
guidelines were suggested: "If you want to do magical
work to protect the clinic, please, please, do it with
perfect love and trust. Our goal is to protect the
clinic, the staff, and the patients from those who want
to force their views on them. Please keep in mind the
Harm None Clause and make your work defensive in
nature."
Many of
Aware Woman's "clinic escorts" are practicing witches.
On August 4, 1992,
two employees of Aware Woman abortion clinic, Veronica
Jordan and Rebecca Morris, registered a non-profit
religious corporation known as the Wiccan Religious
Cooperative of Florida (WRCF). The stated purpose of the
WRCF is to provide an umbrella organization for witch
covens throughout the state of Florida. The
incorporation papers list two abortion clinic employees
as directors of the Wiccan organization
When
Abortion Is a Sacrament
The lights were low, and Native American
flute music played softly. A counselor
held the woman's hand, whispering words
of comfort as she began to surface from
a guided meditation. Then the doctor
showed the woman a covered silver bowl
that held the tiny remains of her
six-week pregnancy. She curled her
fingers around his, and her face, now
damp with tears, softened as he began
their ceremony of letting go.
"We ask your blessing, in the name of
love," Curtis Boyd, M D, began softly.
Before becoming a doctor, Boyd was a
foot-washing Baptist minister in rural
EastTexas. He left the fold but took
with him an abiding faith in the power
of ceremony to heal, honor, and comfort.
"Women because of what they are
bombarded with in the media and by
anti-abortion groups get the message
that what they are doing is wrong and
that they are bad people," Boyd says, "A
ceremony says the woman is a good and
caring person who made the best decision
she could under difficult circumstances.
It also gives her a way to honor the
fetus to be aware of her grief and to
express her loss."
In
the nearly eight years I worked as a
counselor and medical assistant at
Boyd's clinic in Albuquerque, New
Mexico, I witnessed many ceremonies.
Some were for couples whose fetuses had
died or had medical anomalies. Others
were for women who, for whatever reason,
knew that it was not the nighttime to
bring a child into their world and
sought a way to make peace with that
decision.
Each blessing ritual was individually
designed. One Buddhist couple set up an
altar, complete with incense, candles,
and rice cakes. Native American women
sometimes brought corn meal for
sprinkling during their blessings. Boyd
has since retired from performing
surgery, but he and his wife and
partner, psychologist Glenna
Halvorson-Boyd, still guide the work
done at her Albuquerque and Dallas
clinics. All patients have an
opportunity to perform their own rituals
or to create new ceremonies with the
help of counselors.
This particular afternoon, in the soft
light of the surgery room, Boyd
concluded the ceremony with a prayer:
"We ask that you honor this woman's
courage and bless her and her family as
they move forward in their lives."

Nazi-Hitler Ties to Boot!
Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood,
was a known adulteress who consistently and publicly
supported a "woman's right to destroy" deeply involved
with Havelock Ellis, who advocated a variety of sex
practices supposing them to be the keys to spiritual
enlightenment and power.
She was
also into Rosicrucianism (an occult).
Abortion became her necessary backup for contraceptive
failure.
Magaret had
an admiration for for Adolf Hitler and the eugenics
policies of Nazi Germany convinced that the "inferior
races" were in fact "human weeds" and a "menace to
civilization." In 1920, she published her lover
Havelock Ellis' favorable review of The Rising Tide
of Color Against White World Supremacy by Dr.
Lothrop Stoddard. Ellis wrote:
"The diminishing value of our
racial stocks is reflected in the folly of our
statesmen, heedless that the crisis we approach is
of their own creation reckless that if they make
possible another white civil war our whole
civilization will collapse by the sheer weight of
its imbecility."
At first, Sanger's
efforts focused on the mentally retarded and those with
hereditary diseases. She encouraged only the "fit" to
have large families. The "fit" were the upper class,
highly intelligent whites.
Sanger's "Positive
Plan of Eugenics" or "Plan for Peace" was to encourage
who she saw as "the mentally, morally, and physically
fit to marry and reproduce, to the end of racial
improvement if not perfection."
"The best stocks must be
encouraged to marry and reproduce; for, as far as
the future welfare of society is concerned, nothing
can equal the importance of Eugenic marriages"
(Birth Control Review, December 1924).
Margaret also
advocated, "A License for Mother's to Have Babies" and
"Permits to Become Parents."
By 1939, Margaret
Sanger began what she termed the "Negro Demonstration
Project". A plan to win the trust and support of blacks
in several key southern states so as to campaign and
introduce birth control into the Black population.
Part of her
strategy was to recruit Black doctors and ministers to
support her Eugenics policies, and act as liaisons
between the Planned Parenthood Federation and the Black
communities.
"We do not want word to go
out that we want to exterminate the Negro
population and the minister is the man who can
straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to
any of the more rebellious members."
The "Negro
Project" was successful. According to a Health and
Human Services Administration report:
- Forty-three percent of
all abortions are performed on Blacks.
- The sterilization rate
among Blacks is 45 percent higher than among
whites
- In most Black
communities, abortions outnumber live births
three to one.

Chancellor Adolf
Hitler
Berlin, Germany
Honorable
Chancellor,
I enclose a
clipping from the Minneapolis Journal of
Minnesota, United States of America,
relating to, and praising your plan to
stamp out mental inferiority among the
German people.
I trust you will
accept my sincere wish that your efforts
along that line will be a great success
and will advance the eugenics movement
in other nations as well as in Germany.
Sincerely.
C.F. Dight
President Minnesota Eugenics Society
