Yesterday I alerted my readership to a special Witch-themed episode of the crime procedural The Mentalist , and it looks like most of you shared my own negative reactions to the show.
I know I do not know a lot about Wiccans or their beliefs. I do however think that a tv show should not try to make them look bad in the public eye. What this show has done in my opinion is give people just a hint of the truth so people can go off on some so called "witch hunt" with no real knowledge. You might as well go out and burn a library since there may be harmful books in there too.
Anti-Witch Hysteria is still common I'm afraid.
I know a Wiccan couple that have very private lives, they fear ignorance.

My Methodist mother plucked up courage to talk to them at our wedding, she had an amazing, enlightening time.
