Should witchcraft be considered a real profession? - Not magic, but using natural remedies and common sense for heathcare

Witchcraft never existed, it was just a way to explain practices where the base methods that it work by aren't explained to the layman.

Very similar to some doctors I spoke to years ago before they learned that a little patience went a long way.
 
All of our rulers are sorcerers, so it's already considered a profession by different names.
 
Yes but no. They already sell holistic medicine everywhere. So it is a job of selling mesicinal herbs, if you got lucky, or cow piss and shit if you rolled a 1 and have been born Indian.

Isn’t chiropractic popular in the US? My understanding is that this is a pseudoscience.

depends on the application. i think most people just use it as a massage for sore muscles and joints. they pulled their back/shoulder playing a sport so they go to a chiropractor to bend, contort, and massage it to feel better. but true chiropractic is a psuedoscience where they believe actual diseases can be cured through manipulating the body. i havent really seen too many people who take it that far, but i do know those people exist.

Don't stain the name of the witches with what retards on the Internet claim to be.

There are no more witches in current world (besides me), you're just describing your local scammer that sells people overpriced stuff like extracts, some plants, candles, homeopathic slop, etc.

As they've told you, the label would be a "herbalist" (if they're legit), but right now I'll tell you that there's a great chance they're not even than, and are just a seller or a person in marketing.

The way you're describing it though (with lying about demons, etc, something they don't know anything about more than a kid imagining it before sleep), is just a bullshitter.

As per OP's description, the term you're looking for is bullshitter.

Calling them a bullshitter sounds counter productive

Well, if they're scamming people like that, it's what they are.

Like the example you put "if you carry this great big magic rock up that hill once a day then in a year you'll have a wife", that is probably a scammer and definitely a bullshitter.

That's just basic exercise. If you carry a heavier weight around once a day you get stronger and healthier and more confident in yourself. Finding someone to marry will usually follow that.

No, that's bullshit.

We can put a lot of examples like that, you can also give me all your money, and by that simple act alone, your generosity will make you more humble, and then make you value things to a greater degree, which will then give you success in the long run. And success will grant you a loved one, and probably a secured job in the government as well.

In your example, it may injure their back instead. That's no good.

Trust me, I'm a witch.

That's called a physician. It already is a profession. If it works, it's medicine; if it doesn't, then it's not.

You can go to the doctor for acupuncture, for some things, because it works. You can go to the naturopathic doctor, for some things, even. You can cure homosexuality by cleansing the body of parasites. These things are medicine because they work.



Then there's sorcery, which you have conveniently defined away in your opening terms. And this can work, too, curses, spells, etc. But it's not what you're talking about, because it's praeternatural. If you want to be a PHYSICian, be a physician. If you want to slip witchcraft in there, be an Anglican bishop.
