Depends on who you’re asking, from experience I can all I can say conclusively is say that Catholics would definitely say no, but I’m 100% sure there’s at least one christian sect out there that would say yes and be entirely serious

Literally every single excuse for prayers not working can be employed for spells not working just as effectively, no modification required

And? There’s more inportant shit to worry about than people being silly
- Comment on cis friend does witchcraft 2 days ago:
If I had to guess I’d say the friend is either boosting the transition because duh, or trying to fuck because why else would you not tell them what the spell is for? Unless there’s some rule about spellcasting like for birthday wishes where it doesn’t work if you tell
- Comment on cis friend does witchcraft 2 days ago:
You don’t have to believe it literally to justify participating, plenty of people who understand rationally that prayer won’t instantly get them what they want still pray
- Comment on cis friend does witchcraft 2 days ago:
Prayers and spells are exactly the same behavior, a ritual for asking greater powers to intercede on your behalf. For people who genuinely believe in it there’s always some “works in mysterious ways” shit to justify when the thing they asked for never happens so they can keep believing it anyway, and as long as they ask in a vague enough way and on a vague enough timeline something will eventually happen that fits the bill close enough for them to call it a success. For people who don’t believe it literally but still participate it’s basically just ritualized affirmation, a self pep talk to make them feel more confident or prepared or calm using religious/occult symbolism to psychologically reinforce the effect.

Being helpless and dependent isn’t a good thing, doesn’t matter how vanilla you feel it is
- Comment on renewing my country's ID card for when i visit this summer 1 week ago:
There are plenty of things that turn people on that are objectively harmful and/or counterproductive and should be discouraged, in the grand scheme of things this isn’t one of the worst but that doesn’t make it good, some urges absolutely should be suppressed or at least redirected

You can be taken care of without choosing to be less able and less independent, there is nothing positive about having less autonomy and nothing about being a sub that requires it
- Comment on renewing my country's ID card for when i visit this summer 1 week ago:
You can be a sub without being weak and dependent, that’s just a slightly different stereotype

- Comment on so how do the kids defeat this clown, stephen? 3 weeks ago:
I’m pretty sure Stephen King was sexually abused as a child, and I’m pretty sure this scene in It is just another example of him trying to work through it with his writing. It’s a recurring theme in a lot of his work, and some of it feels like he’s speaking from direct experience. The Library Policeman specifically. He also mentions in On Writing that he has sparse memories of his childhood with long blanks spots, which is pretty standard for traumatized kids.
