In the bible, magic is real. We haveHow can you call yourself a sorcerer if you can't at least make frogs come out of the ground? They're obviously not True Witches™.

...but seriously, though, where did all of these magical powers go? My original thread on the topic never reached an answer...

Actually there is. there are a couple of stories that identifies sourcerers/witches and tells of their 'power.'

So, wait, you're agreeing with me that you need magical powers to be a real witch?
