I use it to describe my own personal spiritual path.
It was the wicked witch which practiced witchcraft.
That is not true.
The word witchcraft is a noun. It is the practice of witches.
ya its part of it. In some of the branches of Paganism you can and do find people who use witchcraft as part of their spiritual path, however it is a personal choice and not all use it. To use an old mathematical formula... All Witchcraft is Pagan, but not all Paganism is Witchcraft.

witchcraft
Witchcraft is one of the most misunderstood and maligned spiritual paths in the world today.
It is a group of religions. It is not "used".
Witchcraft is a way of life. It is a religion (or, rather, a group of religions) and magick. One form is Wicca.
Yes they did
The word "witchcraft" was introduced by the Vatican around 1600's to label any religious or ritual practice that does not match with Christianity. This word was originally meant to give an evil steriotype. Most of the witches who practices witchcraft does not hurt anyone. Witchcraft is an innocent art and craft.
It depends on the type of witchcraft you are referring to. There are so many different types of Witchcraft. A Witchcraft book is not necessorily evil. A book cannot be evil. It depends on how you are going to use the Witchcraft in that book. You cannot say a knife is evil or a Gun is evil The person who is holding the knife or gun could be evil or could be good. It depends on the intentions of the person who is using it. If you use the knowledge for good it is good. If you use that knoeledge for bad, that is evil.
