INTRODUCTION <br />
-...and thus, the Works of Darkness began to prevail among all the sons<br />
of men.'"<br />
It is axiomatic among the neo-pagan and even the satanic<br />
subcultures pervading the western world that, ~Magick is Magick; it's<br />
what you do with it that makes it Black or White." White-light<br />
Practitioners are afraid of being labeled ~Satanic", and modern Satanists<br />
are afraid of being considered dangerous, fanatical, or truly evil. All is<br />
done with a smile and a happy song in the heart.<br />
There is an ancient evil sleeping beneath the earth, however,<br />
that has been roused by our million man marches, our nuclear murders<br />

It has been a nearly undisputed fact until recent times that the<br />
Works of Darkness carry with them the power to infect masses with<br />
disease, to bring storms or drought, to sway the outcome of war, or to<br />
possess the most innocent man to commit murder or even suicide. It is<br />
the unseen evil, the unspeakable thing lurking in the shadows of the<br />
history of the human race.<br />
People believed in Black Magick because the alternative was<br />
deadly. The Powers of Darkness were known to be as real as the storms<br />
