- The Witches' Voice
The Witches' Voice (WitchVox) is an online information and networking resource for the modern
Wiccan and Pagan (Paganism ) community. It is anon-profit organization founded and run by Wren Walker and Fritz Jung in1997 .Calling itself an 'educational resource only', the Witches' Voice does not teach
Wicca ,Witchcraft or any form of paganism, nor do they give outspells orcharms of any kind, and adheres to strict policies of both neutrality and 'no advertisements'.Notable features present on the site include a newsfeed, sections for both business and personal advertising, semi-monthly essays submitted by the site's visitors, and the 'Bardic Circle', a monthly selection of various musicians and bands related to the pagan scene.
Also appearing semi-regularly is a series of articles titled 'Witch Hunts: Exposing the Lies', which is written by Detective Constable Charles Ennis, a Vancouver, Canada police officer and Wiccan. These articles profile various 'anti-occult' groups and individuals, often looking into the histories of such groups and exposing contradictory or outright-fallacious statements made by those within. Three collections of letters, titled 'Reactions' I, II and III, have appeared alongside the articles, and feature letters both for and against the series, sent to Ennis by both independent readers and those he profiles.
Additionally, the site offers a large networking section entitled 'Witches of the World', in which individual users can receive region-specific advertisements and contact information for pagan groups and shops in their local area. Other features of the WitchVox site include articles on personal safety, festival tips and reviews, movie reviews, and basic information on paganism in general.
