This is nuanced, complex, messy, and clearly seen… like the life of a balanced person! I think the entirety of your statements here exemplify exactly why the cards should be in the religion section. You could apply almost every main point here to religion as well… practitioners with multiple viewpoints, not foisting your ideas on others. Wonderful things to think about here. Thank you!
Similarly, when I try to address the ideas some have about Tarot being a gateway to the devil… I discuss the same tools being used for different intent. Candles, incense, altars, robes, even crosses(!) have all been used for non-Christian purposes, but the church isn’t banning those items. Intention matters. “Eggs are for baking.” Marvelous.
