Hmmm...
I do, but I don't. All fiction is based somewhere in reality, of that I am sure. There are supposed to be numbers that are spiritualy powerful (as in Charmed's 'power of three'), but I don't think that particular number is correct. Four corners, four seasons, four elements (earth, air, fire, water), etc....that seems more logical as a powerful number. There are witches, evil/negative entities (demons I guess you could say), but I don't think that all of Charmed is correct...witches powerful because there house is on a spiritual nexus and they happen to just be three sisters? Like they're the only wiccan family who's EVER had three daughters... REALLY! Now, people who are able have been known to cast off negative entities (very vague as to not show favoritism here)--even Catholism beleives in demons, as do most religions (maybe just using different names for said neg. entitites, but most still beleive something's there).
Parts of the show are based on truths, the rest is made up for good t.v... if you're a true beleiver you would know what's truth and what isn't. Trust your heart, your soul, and don't worry about what others think. Opinions are fine, but do n't let anyone sway you from your beleif...you have it for a reason.

It's a complex question you ask, when you take a whole sale survey of most people who pratice a pagen faith they will tell you that they do belive in magic, and or in some form or another of deamons, witches, ghosts, vampires, and other forces. There are many forms and practices of these each with similar but diffrent beliefs ranging from shamenisum to otherkin. Most people who practice magic and consider themselves a "modern wiccan" either gardenarian or alexandrian, perhaps even folks who are witches and follow one of the many paths out there such as discordian, will tell you that magic does exist, thou they will say that magic does not work like it does in the tv show charmed, after all it is just that a tv show, many of the principles they use do hold some truth; however, the idea that there is three witches choosen by fate to protect the world with powers beyond those around them held together by the power of three is a bit lacking. Noting that in a typical coven it takes at least three members to found one, depending on what pagen faith you follow. Not to mention the Rule of three in the wiccan tennants. at best the show charmed is an elmagamation of a lot of diffrent pagen faiths dressed in hollywwod clothes to entertain, thou it may spark intrest in the pagen faiths I would caution not to take everything it shows or offers as truth. study, take a mentor and learn for yourself. Then decide what you believe and how it applies to your life and or path.

i beleive in magic, but its hard to answere a question like that. I study wicca, some others are pegan(not me)....totally different types of magic. My personal opinion is that magic only comes from with in ones self with a little help from higher ups....meaning Gods or Goddesses, maybe a little stones and nature are also means of helping the prossess along. but this is all stuff a person really has to take time out of there daily lives and WANT to devote thereselves to in order to even get into it....if a person cant, then dont even bother.....your waisting your time.

Witches... in the sense of neo-pagans
Demons... unproven
whitelighters... my sister has one, she got it from the shops, old style lighter, but lights her smokes fine.
The charmed ones are the 3, the 3 that will lead to the 1, and the will is the 1 that will... yea... no i dont believe in the charmed ones. Though powers like theirs have been researched, they are theories, I dont think any have been found.
I dont like to have beliefs, I like to hear theories, and take an unbiassed stance.
Anything's possible.

Navre summed it up pretty well, but expanding on a few things, prior to what you ehar on television and read in books like Harry Potter, there are no such thing as wizards or warlocks, they are terms Witches (who are both Male and female) use to call a traitor to their Coven.
Whiteliters or whichever they are, as you have seen on Charmed do not exist either, and neither does that light show whenever you would cast a spell in real life, witchcraft is more spiritual-based and does not need phsyical manifestations at all. Everything witches do all revolves around the nature around them, with love, it is of a person's heart whom is connected with a higher power, deity if you will, money and other material posessions from what your country uses to produce them from nature (trees, plastic), good fotrune, peaceful night's sleep, etcetera from the Sun and the Moon etcetera.

Yo watch too much tv. It is fantasy. Make believe. Are their demons? Yes. Are there witches? Not like what is on tv. Are there white lighters? More fantasy. Tv is rotting your brain. I know all about all of this " New Age " stuff, been there and did it long ago. It is a BIG RIP OFF. I was involved in this garbage 25 years ago. It is a farce to say the least. The show Charmed is just that, a tv show. FICTION!!!!!

Witches, yes. I am one. But Charmed? Whitelighters? No. I'm not a teenager "playing at spells" and can't tell the difference between a fictional tv show, and reality.

I don't believe in the whole idea of what your saying, like how it's set up on the show charmed, but I do believe there are things like good and evil lots of other unsolved mysteries in the world, like for example the unexplained telepathy twins have.......

im an atheist and very non-spiritual so i don't go into, demons and witches because they're surrounded by religion but I have experience with precognition, intuition, ghosts and the general knowledge of things that are happening in other places, etc, etc.
with all that said i have to admit these things happen but I have a more scientific view of it.
