While I agree with just about every thing that you've said, I have never tried to summon the devil, there are some on LM's bandwagon who have tried and feel that they "suceeded." There are a few first hand stories on her organization's web site that state that because they wanted to know more about magic, that it lead to more intense materials. Those books led them to even darker material that didn't claim to be entertainment. Along with the new interest, it led to drastitic lifestyle changes. I thought that some of these stories sounded more like teen angst than anything else.
