Hello again in your message return message u said that u were unsure what i ment by pattarn magic so i thought id tell u abput it as i admittedly spotedly understand it. Basically the theory of pattarn magic states that magic is such a universally binding and versatile force that any attempt to codify the whole of it is doomed to failure. Therefore magic is coalseced into an impure form of what is for lack of a better word, true magic. This impure magic is still potent but is bound up into belief structure. Let me give u an example: The christian theurge believes that his magic comes from god therefore the magic he preforms is bound in this pattarn so there are certain things he can and cant do with his magic and its the same with any kind of magic. I believe this though relates to Platos realm of nonesis which is the trancendant state in which true magic is possible whilst other magic is bound up in the realms of emotion and reason. So my comment meely asked if perhaps angels and demons in the Christian perseptive were out of your perview because they are contary to your pattarn. Id be interested to hear your thougfhts on this magical therory. Thanks mate.
