I am going to say this:

If you think that citing sources from witchcraft, magic, or psychology related texts is proof that your practice or preference is better than any other, especially when related to impromptu or “modern” witchcraft – 

You need to take a minute to figure out why the accessible and inexpensive version of magic is bad, and the traditional, academic, indecipherable version of magic is good.
