Occult practices for me means devil worship and associated rituals. I consider them bad because I consider the devil bad.

- frongpik 6y agoThat's wrong, though. Occultism didn't have the evil meaning until very recently. That's similar to how nazis have changed the public image of swastika: before them it was an Egyptian symbol of light or something of that sort. "Occult" merely means hidden from plain sight. Coincidentally, the most occult thing out there is hiding in plain sight: it's electricity.
- tectonicfury 6y agoIt’s got to do with the semantics, and for that you need to keep track of the context in which it was used by me.
