Haha, don't worry man, I'm not judging it negatively, I'm just being a wistful ninny. :P

@Sei: Yeah, a lot of magic in fiction does come from what people believed they could conjure here in the real world (And like with Voodoo, they even had some success). Necromancy was an art of divination (Also a catch all term for black magic in general) for example, Invocation, Evocation, Conjuration and so on all have some representation in Biblical works, which some folk hold to be fact not fiction. Either way, you get the point. The ideas are there, even if they only work while imbibing toxic mushrooms.
