Most things in life have both positive and negative aspects; magick is no different.
As too with 'Godly' beings; for example Yahweh.
The mechanisms of occult ritual practice are neither positive or negative; it is only the intent that the adept employs during these workings that determine weither they become positive or negative.
Of coarse negitivity is employed by other factions that may not share your beliefs; designated religions utilize this aspect, and demonize their opposition to keep their members from straying.

Why would anything positive be 'occult', meaning 'hidden'? Good works are done in the light, arent they?
