Bishops and Imams alike will view most magic with distrust, especially Hedge Magic and Witchcraft. However, a number practice various magics themselves, and rumours of Knightly Orders dedicated to the effective use of magics for furthering religious aims abound. It is a complex issue, and likely to have a great number of varying opinions even from a small room of people. | Bishops and Imams alike will view most magic with distrust, especially Hedge Magic and Witchcraft.

+ | It has been witnessed, or so many have claimed and still claim, that miracles are ever-present in the world. That the true and righteous, with belief and God's strength, can do great things and follow in Jesus or Muhammad's footsteps, turning water into wine, moving mountains and casting out demons. | ||

+ | Though some have claimed the tricks of magic and witchery at work, indeed denouncing miracle workers, others have sworn blind that no magic craft was ever at work. Could it be that through good works, prayer, devotion and unshakable belief that any man or woman can be bestowed with the power to change the world? Or have such rumours run so far as to spawn believers of these miracles, nothing more than tricks or oratory, across the Holy Land and far beyond? |
