Use in Other Traditions

"In the Bible references to witchcraft are frequent, and the strong condemnations of such practices which we read there do not seem to be based so much upon the supposition of fraud as upon the "abomination" of the magic in itself." -- see Witchcraft
Cathars
"A strong belief in the superiority of the spiritual realm to the material inspired them to remain abstinent from sex, believing that the trapping of a soul within flesh was an abomination."
