Ancient practices throughout the history of mankind have formed the basis of what religions we have in our culture today. Even those such as the newer practices of Christian-Judaism, Islam, Buddhism and Hinduism. These are the top five which have dominated the belief system in the last handful of thousands of years as compared to the age of the oldest found remains of humanity; 200, 000 years.

These practices are centered on a series of scientific schools of thought; such as: alchemy, sorcery/psychiatry, numerology, astronomy and study of cycles. They are the main players in what has been known for thousands of years as "The Craft". Through use of words, symbols, colors, sounds and rituals, it has been able to manipulate the EM fields around us.

There are facts of science which prove that all of these things do in fact manipulate the EM field; yet there has long been a created rift between science and religion. One put in place to materialize a veil for use of these ancient techniques. Every piece of scripture today is an instruction manual coded for those who have successfully climbed the proper rungs on the Ladder of Knowledge.

Witchcraft has been given the image of people riding around on brooms casting petty hexes to find love, or make a crush who rejected you get a good case of athlete's foot. Instead; the true Craft is a study of those things which can be used to manipulate your sorroundings. The media is a form of this. Would you not call one bedazzled with idols seen in a multitude of shapes, colors and sounds --- a form of bewitching?

You see that these symbols exist in harmony amongst all religions; such as what people call the Star of David or the Seal of Solomon --- one which people falsely believe is found only in the Judaic faith but actually predates it; as well as being displayed prominently amongst all modern "monotheistic" faiths.

The Roman Catholic church is an example; which still includes ancient rituals and symbols in its day to day life --- one which allowed for the canonization of Saints --- other semi-gods people were allowed to give their prayers to. Each representing something found in humanity or nature.
