I agree completely with what you say.  I think the conept of sin feeds
on itself thus the 'hell fire & damnation' preaching that has so many
people living in fear, not really able to love themselves, life or
anything else.

I know, from my own experiences that when you use magic to try and
control someone else the results can be very harmful to yourself.  I
also know that manifestation of positive material things and outcomes
in your own life are available through sex magic.
