In a world of 7 000 000 000 people, most ideas have already been thought of, and I think this one sort-of has too. LaVeyan Satanism is an atheistic religion that uses magick (its more edgy if you misspell magic) as an "intellectual decompression chamber" a sort of post-rationalist thing for psychological benefits. There are other atheistic religions too, but I can't recall any others that use magic.
Not that this is a criticism of your post, I thought it was a good collection of exercises. Have you actually tried using any of them?
Fair enough, the idea already exists although in the edgier guise of satan.
I did most and added some for completion. I already had some contact with spirits and mystical visions.
