:Are we saying then that there are two entirely different types of people called witches? That's like having two entirely different theories of evolution. It's no help using one word for two different concepts - especially when the concepts appear similar. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 20:18, 25 May 2007 (EDT)

I just dislike the opening paragraph as reading rather badly (in terms of language, not intent).
How about: "Witchcraft, often referred to as "magic" or "black magic", is the use of supernatural powers as prohibited in the [[Bible]]. Witchcraft includes any act or instance of employing sorcery regardless of intent. Witchcraft calls upon powers other than those of God, the opposite of Christian prayer. Christians who believe in Biblical truth consider witchcraft to be against the teachings of God and hence evil."
Not Shakespeare by any account but succinct and less ranty than the original without diluting the message. [[User:Fingermouse|Fingermouse]] 20:24, 25 May 2007 (EDT)
