I hope enough water has passed under the bridge since the previous reaction to Lee's #57 for me to ask the question that immediately occurred to me (and which a busy-busy late afternoon/early evening, with dinner, kept me from posting earlier)

"Name-compulsion magic" was what caught my eye, even before the rest of the explanation "something that anyone with a little exposure to genuine paganism would recognize as very black magic indeed -- but because those Christians have never looked at any other belief system (indeed, they are forbidden to look), they don't recognize what they're doing at all. And this applies to the leaders as much as to the followers.

That label looks like a mightily condensed package of meaning, and I'd like an explanation, in short words and easily-understood sentences. (I've tried to use my Google-fu, but in the end, decided that there are some unanswered anxiety issues being plucked by the search - and I'd rather trust the folks I've read here to tease out stuff so I could see it better.)

really, what non-spam threatens you with death if you report something as spam?
