Re: A Blunt Response No Doubt Destinted To Be Bowdlerized
Riiiiiiigt. So you're magic(k) is all growed up and Niles' is all childish?
I'm sorry, but it's all rediculous. I don't care weather it works or not, it's still planly redicuouls. I'm amazed that any fortean 'Beleives' this stuff. I don't believe it, even though I have been knowen to use the odd sigil and they certainly seem to work.
It's no more worthy of our 'belief' than science and a whole lot less provable.
I think it's redicuouls when schools of magic(k) quarrel. I agree that Robyn's ryhm is childish, but if she likes ryhms then fine. And I don't see why Niles reverse curse idea is any less likely than the rest of this stuff.
What's wrong with it Frater? Is it not Crowlean enough for you? Is it not 'proper' magic unless you get to dress up and f*ck a goat?

FraterLibre said:This is Buffyism at its finest, and nonsense. I shan't excuse you for this, no. Fact is, magical thinking isn't magic, and the "method" is either self-delusion or no big secret. If it makes you feel more important, though, by all means continue to mystify yourself.
