Yes, as Krowe has stated the word "black" is an attention getter!surest wrote:Why l made this reference is because , those books were written by magician themselves yet they give such titles .

It instantly forms an idea in the mind of the reader or power, wealth, control, instant whatever etc.
But also we have to remember that even magicians come with their own set of pre-conceived ideas and preferences/prejudices.
So, one can be a magician and still label something that is clearly "dark" as "black".
99.99999% of us will be carrying some kind of baggage with us in life and it will help (for good or ill) to form our judgements and opinions on the world we perceive around us.
Just as in days gone by we will find eminent explorers and scientists with superb minds but, depending on the upbringing they had will still swear blind that the earth is flat or was made in 6 days etc.
They have simply limited themselves due to their conditioning. They have placed a block on their own intuition and intelligence and in their hearts most of them probably knew this but they cannot break free.
Despite their intellect they had brainwashed themselves into the "this far and no further" mentality.
So I wouldn't worry too much if somebody like AEW calls a book a black grimoire or something similar.
Many grimoires were condemned simply for refering to the demonic powers in them.
Or deities that were later labelled as demonic - "You will lose your soul young man...." - as new religions "demonize" their predecessors.
