I want some objections to sharpen my own thinking about occult stuff. Assuming "magic" is using personal directed will to affect reality external to your body, give me your best questions or objections for why it can't work. Example: Why don't very smart people believe in it?

Why do so many religions and 'right hand path' traditions warn about the dangers of engaging in spiritual practice with the intent to manipulate reality by supernatural means?

It seems like if you just live a really saintly and austere life, stuff happens, like miracles. This is just thaumaturgy, and a byproduct of the fruits of spiritual practice. But there seems to be a more sinister association across cultures for people who use sorcery. Why?
