What are some examples of holy magic or magic that isn't evil basically opposite of the black arts?

There really is no answer to the oft heard question; "Are you a good witch or a bad witch." Or in this case Holy magic Vs. Black-arts.

Fact is the magical energies we use are very much like other forms of power.

- For this discussion I will use electricity as a mundane corollary. The energy itself is neither good nor bad. It is in its use that polarity can be attributed.

When electricity is used to cook food, heat homes and light the darkness it is perceived as good.

When it is used to torture people, damage things or kill someone, then it is perceived as bad or evil.

The energy itself is neither, it simply is. And very much so...

In the same way, magical energies are simply there. It is how we draw upon and use the energies that determine how they are perceived.

What few practitioners of any discipline come right out and say is all magic is manipulation. This means as conscientious magical practitioners we are obliged to constantly monitor not only our actions, but also our motivations.

Some cultural beliefs believe that when you die, you become one with an energetic or magical force (For instance, Star Wars and the Jedi). But alongside this idea is the possibility that those who die and transform into this force of magical energy can choose what it is used for initially. So, therefore, magical energy, such as Holy Magic, has chosen its uses unlike electricity which has no life-force or "magical" entanglement at all. If you will go by this system of beliefs, then the energy CAN be one or the other and NOT Simply be its own (or used by the intentions of its user). - Krilon
