We've received two emails from the Fraudnerian group in Seattle, called the "Temple of the Dark Moon".
Here's their claims: "We are a Gardnerian Orthodox Coven. Our Divination is of priestly
Druidism. we are a secret Order and follow a secret agenda. We are Polytheistic. We teach a philosophy of Celtic-specific Wicca and use a teaching grade similar to the Golden Dawn traditions.
We are a member of the Aquarian Tabernacle Church of Index, Washington. We live in community on private acreage off Highway 20, near Hamilton Junction (Skagit County), Washington. The Coven's founder and myself are initiated Gardnerians who have been trained in ceremonial magick and traditional craft. The High Priest holds the "Black Wand of Master and Sorcerer". He has a Ph.D. in Religious Sociology and two M.A.'s in Metaphysics and Wiccan Religious Studies. He holds legal Priesthood Certification and Ordained Ministerail Credentials. He is a graduate of
Woolston-Steen Theological Seminary. I myself have a M.A. in Fine Arts and also hold legal Priesthood Certification.
No, its gets worse: " The final test you must now pass, to prove you worthy of us, is
the first law of the Wiccan Rede, "In Perfect Trust". This is your test of perfect trust which you are expected to comply without question. You will take five $100.00 bills, place them in an envelope
(be sure to fold a sheet or two of paper around the bills so as not to been seen through the envelope), write a contact phone number and your mailing address on the sheet of paper, mail the envelope to me at the following address.

Date: 2006-11-08 05:11 am (UTC)Gods this is just insane! Granted, the Teen profile on Witchvox should have been warning enough for this Seeker, but damn.
Just damn.
Obviously, our upline is notifying Eddie & Company from A&J, but there's probably very little they can do about this guy and Witchvox refuses to get involved.
