Are true black magicians born or created?

My great grandmother was a witch. And this was before every emo girl decided to be one cause hot topic made it trendy. Nah, this was back in the day when the only occult literature that really existed was the first wave of modern occultism. When Thelema was established, the secret teachings of all ages was written, etc. This was pre wicca. Back in her days, the only thing that existed close to the occult was palm readings at the circus. None the less, she moon bathed, read tarot, made potions, etc.
I was raised christians. I still claim Christ. I respect the Christian faith and will never talk bad about it.

I have always had an attraction to the occult. Also, i've always had a desire, a calling to use magic, even tho logically I thought it couldn't be real; I could stop myself.

Are the truly magic born or made? Maybe we are all magick

We’re all born with magic but few choose to believe in it

@Emosaur I couldn’t care less about the opinions of random people online, get a real personality outside of religion and politics

@BlueSkyKing Dude, did you read the conversation in it's entirety? I DO know what constitutes as evidence. The standard of evidence is different depending on whether you're in a lab or court. In a court, Eyewitness testimony (anecdotes) count for quite a bit. In a laboratory, nothing that can't be shown to make predictions in replicated tests matters. Eye witness testimony doesn't mean anything. In your personal and private life, enecdotes mean a lot more. If you for example are sober, have no signs of insanity or a family history of it, and see a flying snake that breathes fire, this is evidence for you personally that dragons are real. There is nothing I am saying that isn't true here.

I think when you’re raised in a structured religion, the idea that there are things beyond what you were taught has a certain appeal. And the fact that many of these religions warn that the occult is evil gives it a forbidden fruit appeal.

@Straylight Exactly, palm reading is considered as science in my culture.
Maybe we are all magick

Nope, not all of us dabble in the occult.

This is not an occult...lol
The fantasy is not reality. Zero evidence for any magic, occult, or supernatural beliefs.

@Emosaur Magick is energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed.

@Emosaur At least it's better than Christianity

see what christianity did to the Native americans and Africans

I'm native American two spirited bisexual, I was a different gender in a past life. Did you know that Native Americans accepted those who are gay and bisexual and are gender diverse and they have a term for it. Two-spirited.

Most Native Americans lean on the left side than the right side. Trump is a misogynistic failure and he's going to prison.


Conservatives tend to attack Native American spirituality and claim men are superior to women. While Native Americans saw women equal to men and were the first feminists. Don't forget that Natives were forced converted to Christianity by colonialists from their cultures and traditions. They were forced into boarding schools and lost most of their language, culture, arts, spirituality, traditions and customs.
And they were forced to worship a patriarchal male God, some were converted to Christianity and some still revere mother earth and saw all things connected and equal.
I use the word spiritual because there's a difference between being religious and being spiritual, "spiritual" is being connected with the universe and seeing yourself a part of the whole.

Christianity and atheism are both patriarchal white cisgender male dominated worldviews.



Christian imperialism, secular imperialism, and patriarchy should be abolished.

I rather term myself as a nontheist than an atheist.

And I rather term myself as spiritual than religious.

Most Native tribes were egaliterian and matriarchal.

In matriarchal societies women were viewed as a sacred and not inferior to women and those societies revered the Earth and Moon as a goddess and embraced the feminine in nature. In egaliterian societies they revered both the Sun and the Earth as a god and goddess. The feminine and the masculine aspects in nature were both revered.

Your white fragility and white privilege is showing paleface.
