There even seems to be a tacit awareness that it's not actually magic, though I don't think the awareness ever becomes explicit.
AFAICT most chaos magicians believe in the supernatural, but at least some have been thoroughgoing materialists who believe only in the psychological power of suspension of disbelief.
We'd better not tell them that they haven't actually suspended their disbelief.
By my meaning of the phrase, they have, your nominally Orthodox friend certainly has, and everyone who watches a film does it all the time.
