Magick is legit
Saw my sister in persecution getting flamed for this, so I thought I'd start a thread. I guess I should put a tl;dr in the OP? Not really my style. Q&A gogogo

Regardless of what you think about Jesus, it would seem unreasonable to say that there's no such thing as church services.

Of course magick is pure legit. That Aleister Crowly book I read as a teen and think I still have kicking around somewhere totally assures me that it is.

I've asked before if you were troll or fool. This makes up my mind.
As far as the subject goes: I don't give a flying fuck. I've never seen anyone be able to put it to practical application, so whether it is real or not is meaningless to me and irrelevant to the business of trying to live the best life I can.
But have fun chasing your tail and having others here follow.

Thanks, Ely, but I provided them with a link to a website where people can learn about such things. Check it out... http://spiralnature.com

I don't need to 'learn about such things' from some mumbo-jumbo practitioner on some flim-flam website.

You just ruined the premiere of "The Secret Circle" for me.
I hope you're happy with yourself.

Magick is not a church service, it's a belief that you can walk on water.

Only if you take the practice of magick to be magick and not the actual power that neopagans claim to tap into or manipulate. If you're going to take that road, do people practice magick? Yes. Does it work? No.
Besides, particularly with today's neopagans it seems magick to them is prayer and ritual that wasn't pretentious enough for them.

Okay, let's for real's this.
Magick (or magic) is supposed to be an outside influence on the world of the magician's (wizard's, sorcerer's, witch's) making. Subtle changes that can change an outcome, the same as making a donation, helping a charity with volunteer time, or being supportive to someone who needs it. This creates a change in the inevitable outcome. Real magick isn't fireballs, curses, and selling you souls for power (although all that stuff makes for cool special effects and I'm all about that).
So, if that's what you're going on about, magick's real. Heaven helps those who help themselves (but not shoplifters; that's the other place).
