Depends on who you’re asking, from experience all I can say conclusively is 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 important shit to worry about than people being silly

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

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

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.

A creative exercise by an infantile mind, one we can only hope will in some way lead to positive growth

Is it? I’m not sure what you’re basing that assumption on

Badass

Being helpless and dependent isn’t a good thing, doesn’t matter how vanilla you feel it is

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

What numbers? Are you sure you can read?

“Impossibly high” lol right, citing a source about Palestine that isn’t the Times of Israel is totally impossible and unreasonable to expect, you’re definitely not just a petulant moron caping for a genocidal regime

Lots of people in the US like Trump, that’s how he got voted in lol

Yes I do, but I’m not going to link it directly and if you say anything about that I’ll blame you for not looking it up yourself lol

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

You’re fighting for jack shit

You’ve got nothing and you know it

You’ve got nothing and you know it

Idk what part of “burden of proof” or “proving a negative” you’re still struggling with and I don’t care, your inability to understand simple concepts or accept responsibility for supporting your own arguments is your own problem. And lol @ “good faith” from the person pushing Times of Israel as a source for anything, try harder halfwit.
