@druid @bl00d but yeah my criticism of witchcraft being misaligned with our values isn't so much a criticism of its functionality as magic, but more from a confucian standpoint of like, ritual propriety as one of the five virtues. confucius and his school, ofc, are very affirming of society, but i think for me as a person trying to address/navigate her own alienation from society, it's good for me to think in those terms a little, even if ultimately i kinda think society needs a massive radical change

@KonataWagner @eemmaa Christianity famously was born during a time of immense social turmoil where everyone thought the world was going to end

@KonataWagner @eemmaa i can't say that really bothers me tbh. besides, it's all in reaction to the state of the world. superstition becomes less necessary the more stable society is, but it's not the fault of superstition that people need to cling to it in times of great turmoil

@bl00d i've read a fair bit. to me it seems like a lot of witchcraft is based in ancient theurgy, which is tied to a lot of cultural values and knowledge that doesn't really exist anymore. it doesn't make sense to me for someone's witchcraft rituals to be so disconnected from the culture they're a part of/the values they actually hold

@KonataWagner @eemmaa paganism isn't amoral and superstition cannot be excised from society. that said, the atomization thing is a real problem imo
