Are any of you conversant with these other uses of icons. Are they the same or if they are different, how so?
Eric M pretty much made the point - whether one is personally sympathetic to Catholic belief or Voodoo surely makes no difference to how it works.
Putting things in an unfamiliar light can seem threatening because your own assumptions can be challenged. But it can be really fruitful, it sharpens up your thinking.
James H. Of course at some level "everything is the same" - radionics, birthday cakes, catholic holy cards, conventional agriculture, prayer, etc (just add whatever else comes to mind). Chris Korrow said the same. But things have by then lost any value in themselves, you can't meaningfully talk about separate things - "it's all just energy."
It is the manifestations that are really of interest - like actual individual people.
