I guess it is the Bronx in me.
Although I haven't look at them all. I am pretty sure there are rules in most areas of magic. The exception that comes to mind is Chaos Magick, however the rule there is that you make your own rules. Magic is similar to music after learning the rules you know how to bend them. However that takes some time unless you are a visionary.
What Caucasians call "magic" is extremely high ancient SCIENCE.
Kind of like how a cigarette lighter would be seen as "magic" to a primitive cave man.
A Black woman in Haiti knows how to take a doll and use it to inflict pain on a live human being.
She knows a SCIENCE.
But because the Caucasian doesn't know it and she refuses to teach it to him, he dismisses it and calls it "magic".
"Look at that UFO!
They must come from Mars because WE (White folks)
don't have the technology to engineer craft
like that!"
If THEY can't do it....they figure it can't be done.
White Supremacists are something else.....lol.
They were given a LIMITED amount of knowledge, so those who have more than them are seen as mysterious and they call their knowledge magic.
LOL! Maybe for YOU two, and people like you, who play nicely in the world
There are a whole category of people out there I would not let loose on the world free to behave based solely upon their mind, heart, and intuition. I shudder at the thought!
Troy
Yes.
I believe it was ritualistic.
If you saw the video the race-soldier had is HAND IN HIS POCKET and looking deep into Mr. Floyd's eyes, while kneeling on his neck.
It was certainly personal.
I would show you a picture of what I'm talking about but I respect your wish NOT to view the video.
Once you SEE something it's hard to "un-see" it.
