1,387 wordsThe Magic of Chaos Peter J. Carroll Crowley certainly helped put the boot in against monotheism but the process was already well advanced.

Practice Of Magic In Modern Day
8,347 wordsI will be looking at magic in prehistoric Europe and the part it played in pre-Neolithic / Neolithic cultures. From this, I hope to reach an understanding of the part magic played in this time and how it progressed into later cultures.

These elements all point in one way or another towards an involvement with the religious belie...

Force To The Secularization Of Jediism
1,524 wordsThe Return of the Je diCale ScheinbaumJim Monson is Society and Religion 19 November 1996 So far this semester, we have studied several different sociological theories of religion.
