Talk:Magical thinking

Title

What's a good page title? Mysticism and shamanism are defined as revolving around the connection with the spirit world, but Chris's beliefs extend beyond that (psychic powers, healing stones, etc). Maybe Occultism? Or Magic? Supernatural? Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 05:39, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

My vote would be for "Chris and the Supernatural" Duff101 (talk) 06:33, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

This article was split off from Chris and religion, where it was a section entitled Mysticism and sorcery; I would suggest Sorcery, or perhaps Chris and the occult for here. This article's scope is different to Meditation (which is more deserving of the name Mysticism than this one), which is focused specifically on Chris's New Age practises.

At first I wasn't sure about making this a Chris And page but since you two are in favor, it sounds like a good idea. So there will be three And pages to cover his fantasies: Reality, Religion, and this one. Also, I was looking through Wikipedia and saw they have a page called Paranormal that's an umbrella term for several beliefs that Chris has - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paranormal; stuff like Astral Projection, Spirit Possession, Magic, Psychics, etc, are on there. So maybe we should match that and call the page Chris and the paranormal? Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 08:47, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Agreed. Perhaps Christ and the New Age might be a clearer description: the phrase explicitly embraces belief in oneself as divine, psionics, crystal and psychic healing, channelling and astral projection, creating one's own reality through positive thinking and uses of the word dimension that make me as a mathematician want to bash my skull in.
