How is "acknowledging the power of magic" not religious? If Satanism is composed of atheists, surely this rule is unnecessarily, as no atheist would believe in magic. What supernatural force is this referring to? Aliens?
Magic is not inherently religious, needs no deity to work (or not work), and you can even call certain scientifically sound events (like observation mucking with subatomic particles) "magical".
What's magical about the fact that bombarding small particles with energy (photons) to see them changes their trajectory?
I was referring more to the double-slit experiment and the fact that light behaves as a wave, even at a single photon at a time, and produces an interference pattern on a screen behind the two slits unless there are photon detectors by the slits. It's just weird. The other quantum effects, like entanglement, and gods know how many other things I can't think of right now are even more "spooky." The idea that there might be a particle which directly reacts to human will is not too far-fetched, when compared to the rest of the proven things subatomic particles do. And that most definitely would be "magic".
And let's not forget Clarke's third law.
Of course, I digress. The point is that "magic" and "deity" are separate concepts, and that atheists are not always rational.
