I am absolutely in a Facebook magician flame war right now with a guy who just devalued all of St. Cyprian’s work because he is a saint and converted to Christianity.

“In essence what you have here is a malady suffered by many modern magicians – a lack of historical context. “

So apparently my defense of Cyprian was so good two guys from Brazil, one a bonafide Cyprian scholar, just sent me friend requests on Facebook.

I call that winning.
