Necropolis:

--- Quote from: omnipotentoculus on May 31, 2006, 01:55:23 PM ---Here is a question to all of you witches, warlocks, druids and mages. No cheating now, this is a test of your magickal adeptness. If you don't know the answer, don't be ashamed, it will be revealed in time.

Who was the first to change the spelling of magic to magick, in order to differentiate between stage magic and "real" magic?

--- End quote ---

It was Gerald, it was one of his many attempts to destigmatize witchcraft. Along with the law of return which was originally what ever you do comes back to you two times. It didn't catch on until Scott Cunningham released it as a rule of three.

Lena:
I actually like it better without the K. Tacking the K on the end makes the word look rather silly to me. But that's just me.

Necropolis:
Lena, Agreed. If I need superflous letters I think I'll by alhpabet soup.

Necropolis:
Sorry I got my witches mixed up Raymond Buckland, not Scott Cunnigham who released the rule of three. I thought I was wrong. Now I know I was.
