Supposedly initiates could tap into this hidden source of natural forces for manipulation or study.If they are "hidden", how would anyone know about it?

Ever hear of chi? Kundalini? TM? yoga? astral projection?
Just out of curiosity, what do you call miracles?
Funny how they refuse to call their godless abiogenesis, billion happy improbable accidents which eventually turns fish into people via godless evolution magic isn't it?

That I disdain dad because dad doesn't go to church?
Does dad use a laboratory as a place of worship?
Psalm 19:1 said:The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
That's nice.For example, looking up at the night sky and seeing deep space photos from NASA often has the same effect as singing a hymn in church, as both give me a sense of awe and appreciation of God.
That's nice.
But when the laboratory becomes a substitute for the sanctuary, then something's wrong.
Collins has been an outspoken Christian in a prominent position in a profession that is highly suspicious of any religious belief or expression. He's gotten a lot of grief as a result.

Is that what creationists tell you?Fully formed biological organisms magically popping into existence is what creationists believe,
You're confused.

Only by imagining that can heckling and jeckling be deployed and mockery be enjoyed.Is that what creationists tell you?
You are confused Eight-Foot-Manchild! I never claimed that abiogenesis is described as working that way. Neither have I ever come across anyone else making that ridiculous claim. Maybe you are incapable of perceiving when hyperbole is being employed?
Speaking of confused.But you did use the word 'magic', which again, is a mechanism of creationism, not science. So I would still say you're confused.
Ah yes, you're right. You didn't use the 'spontaneous generation' canard. I am so accustomed to seeing that put forth by creationists, it's become like a motor response.

Speaking of confused.
Do you know the Biblical difference between magic and miracles?
I was using hyperbole to get my point across. Hyperbole isn't intended to be taken literally.
