25 How are magic and religion/mysticism related or different?

There have been a number of different discussions on these
subjects. The more popular hypotheses include the
magic/individual:religion/group model, and the idea that
religion is the devolution of magic. Some do not seem
to discern between magic and mysticism at all, and many
have never considered the subject, being unexposed
to the latter.

Thelemites might equate magic with will and mysticism with
love, and the association has been made between mysticism
and theurgy, magic and thaumaturgy.
