Explaining Magick
By: / Novice
Post # 1

I'm trying to explain magick to an Atheist who just says relgious makes no sense and that anything that isn't explainable using science is just blindfaith

How do you explain magick to people? How can I explain it in a way an Atheist would understand since they don't believe in any type of deity?

Magic and religion are two different things, there are atheist practitioners of the craft.

You can tell him that if anything non-explainable by science is blind faith than he thinks science knows everything. And for the record, science does have theories on powers of intention and that's all magick really is; intention.

Magick is the manuipulation of energy. You gather that energy, program the energy with the result you desire (This is what spells do), and then you release that energy.

I am an athiest who practices the craft, and this is how I would attempt to explain it.

Ave,

Magick and Religion are two separate things.

Religion can/does provide a backbone for Magick.
