Selling curses & other spells?

Not a scam if you believe in it :/

Whose belief are we talking about here, the person doing the scamming or the person being scammed? Does it suddenly become a scam when the person taking the money doesn't actually believe in it? Isn't the effect on the person being scammed the same?

Arguable, but a fair point I guess.

Both. If the seller and the buyer both believe in it, then it's not really a scam.

Aw' Hon', as much as i love the endless sass and i sort of agree with you, leave 'em be. It makes them happy, and there's a fine line between realness sass and blatant rudeness. Wicca and paganism shouldn't be held to a different standard to the other dumb religions. multi-culturalism and respect yo <3

Can't say I've ever seen an English person using the word "sass". Then again maybe you aren't actually from the UK.

And I hold all religions to the same standard, I just find these especially amusing because they seem to be making it up entirely as they go along.

mostly had a beef because whether it was intentional or not was a form of advertisement, and im morally opposed to the sale of religion, and then i found it funny when they were mauling each other over a minor difference in personal belief. My best friend practices a non theistic or spirit based form of paganism and im cool with it, as long as she's not an etsy-bum. But then again i am also an awful hypocrite and total moist pancake so ignore everything i say like ever.

Yeah but, you dont have to constantly remind people and be rude about it. No-one wants to be that kind of reddit douche-bro atheist. And yeah im english, you must just know a lot of boring people.

Making it up as they go along? Hoodoo and voodoo has been around for centuries. Lol.
 
Don't cut a deal with the devil if you're not prepared for the consequences. You're dealing with forces beyond your control here. You may think that you can control the evil forces you're toying with, but that's the thing, it's an illusion of control. Deny it all you want, but evil cannot be contained, nor can it be controlled. You're kidding yourself and everyone here if you think that messing with this stuff is beneficial in any way.
 
I don't deal with the devil, lwa or spirits. So I'm in no danger in that regard, at least.

Yeah, in Africa originally and then the Caribbean and other places. And it was nonsense then, of course.

But all of that was before it was co-opted by Westerners with too much time on their hands, though. At any rate, I was talking more about these wonderful things:

Urban witchcraft is basically for when you live in a city. It's kind of like urban animism, as far as I've seen. Instead of working with nature, you work with the city. Graffiti is how you can find your daily "signs", crossroad spirits (the lwa Papa Legba is one such famous spirit), etc. You do your witchcraft with things easily found in the city or home. I've seen some use office supplies as tools. :b Use what you got, etc.

@Octavia- Techno witchcraft is about using the modern machines in your work. Using the games Sims for your poppets, using Animal Crossing for your shrines and altars (something I'm totally going to do <3), using apps as a part of your spells (e.g. if you live on campus you can't burn any candles - so they'd use a Candle App), and when coding their tumblrs/websites, they'd include a sigil of their own making within the code.

I've watched too much Supernatural to mess with hoodoo. I know better!
 
Wait I'm confused.

You cast spells on people that you don't know on the street?

Isn't that illegal?

And if it is maybe this thread shouldn't be here.
