11: 21 So nice. I love your wholesome conclusions. They remind me of the novel American Gods when the atheist protagonist asks the gods why they care so much to help him when he doesn’t believe in them, and they respond that it’s because they believe in him.
I still stand by the identity of humanist though I’ve done nothing to participate recently in the formal Secular Humanist community. I don’t believe in gods, but I believe in people who believe in gods, so their faiths are important to me because that’s the goo of humanity.

It's literally nothing apart from scope. Religion and magic both attribute things that aren't well understood to the supernatural. Both can sometimes be fun and contribute to a society but they can also both be detrimental if used by people with bad intentions and/or no integrity or decency. We see that a lot.

I have some friends that are satanists and their religion involves a lot of magic as rituals. In this case is a religion that incorporates magic making the line even more blur

Paulo Coelho covers the idea of magic in a lot of his works. Most famously in The Alchemist. Another great book of his on the subject of magic is The Valkyries.

I notice that many of the names for these native and indigenous practices have also been turned into pejoratives, such as all that hoodoo and Broohaha

Magick is taking the powers that be to task. Religion is asking the powers that be to maybe help you out, if they can be bothered.

Now that I think about it, it's very common in fiction for supernatural powers stemming from faith to be a form of magic in that world.

This is pretty cool. More people need to see this since magic and spells are being spread all about tik tok with little context.
