III. “You Shall Have No Other Gods Before Me”

2117
All practices of magic or sorcery, by which one attempts to tame occult powers,
so as to place them at one’s service and have a supernatural power over others
– even if this were for the sake of restoring their health – are gravely
contrary to the virtue of religion. These practices are even more to be
condemned when accompanied by the intention of harming someone, or when they
have recourse to the intervention of demons. Wearing charms is also
reprehensible. Spiritism often implies divination or magical practices; the
Church for her part warns the faithful against it. Recourse to so-called
traditional cures does not justify either the invocation of evil powers or the
exploitation of another’s credulity.
