I've always been attracted to magic and fiction is a good place to indulge this fascination without risking offence to other denominations. Reading nonsense incantations will neither extend your life nor blight the neighbour's crops, but it does entertain.
There's no way of explaining a character like Johnny Thunder and his magical Thunderbolt without these full flights of fancy.
