Excerpt from Witch Hunt: The Revival of Heresy IN equinoctial times, when day and night are in balance, when old worlds are dying and new worlds are struggling to be born, there is always a prevalence of witches. For there is a season to hunt witches as there is a season to shoot ducks, and the season for witches is the autumnal equinox. Witches are not made or spawned or fashioned, they are caught. Hunting witches is like playing a game: the witch is the one at whom the others point. Without a witch hunt, there would be no witches, and witches are never hunted without a reason. Witch hunts are a means by which, in time of Storm, the belief in witches is exploited in order to control men's thoughts and to police their loyalties. The season. For hunting witches is a season of terror and alarm, when fear hath a hundred eyes and good and evil interchange their names, when people, wearied out with contrarieties, yield up moral questions in despair.
