Witchcraft for Fun and Profit

While more and more in the church are embracing occultism, mysticism, and New Age, as witchcraft becomes a multibillion-dollar business, practitioners’ connection to the natural world is changing, reveals a surge in another religion and its financial fruit: “Witchcraft has also become a multibillion-dollar business. As a sociologist who has been researching this religion for more than 30 years, I have witnessed this growing commercialization: Witch kits are sold by large companies and in stores – something unheard of when I began my research in 1986.

"This surge in popularity has changed these communities in some subtle and not-so-subtle ways. Groups called covens were the norm when I began my research, but as my own research shows, most Pagans now are solitary practitioners. Even while the Goddess continues to be revered, the practitioners’ connection to the natural world, at least for many, is also changing.”

Selling paganism to culture is very profitable. Dr. Peter Jones' book, Pagans in the Pews, was published in 2001. Many didn't pay attention. The growth of paganism in the pews is also very financially profitable. Look at the Enneagram industry and all of the "Christian" publishers and "Christian" magazines reaping profits from the pagans in the pews.
