Well this certainly makes the part I read make more sense.
I don't know what to think about it. I still retain the protests of my previous post on it, but there is merit to the overarching idea outside of the scope of possible differences on what it means to say the word "God" or "Satan" or "Demon" or "Faith."
The truth is, I don't know what those words mean. I don't think anyone else I have ever spoken to does either though, and I have spent my whole life talking to people about those words, including some of the most learned people on the topic from every conceivable religion or spiritual endeavor.
It is only recently that I have come to revisit those topics, and I think your ideas of what it means to be a Magician and/or the idea of magic have a lot of merit. I'm not sure I agree with it completely, because I think there may be real influence in the second tier of Magician (and third tier), but I can't say conclusively that that is so, and you have given me something to contemplate in that regard. I do like your tiers, and I have had similar thoughts of categorization, even if not formally defined like you have.
I will keep this in mind in future contemplation on the matter.
