You -do- think that you can cast a magic spell with a carboard box and a piece of plastic..and that..further, theres an even greater danger to this actual ability for those who do not believe?
It isn't ignorance if it turns out to be true, is it?
But otherwise, I do believe that to the extent that Christians are more than just nominal believers they do believe in malevolent spiritual forces trying to negatively affect people's lives. Such Christians also believe that occult practices allow those malevolent forces greater influence over those that engage in occult rituals however innocent or ridiculous they may seem. And yes, I do think that nonbelievers are at greater risk to the influence of malevolent spiritual forces because they are blind to them. Part of the power of demons and evil spirits is their ability to deceive which includes making people think they do not exist.
