Clericcraft
Etymology: Cleric ("Clergy, Deity-Derived Spellcaster") + craft ("art, skill"); counterpart to Witchcraft
Definition:
A) A religious adherent that partakes in their particular 'saintly' god brand's approved rites & practices by overseeing clergy-equivalents within a church or other sacred space - especially one that accuses those off their god brand for just about any seemingly arbitrary action, even virtually the same, as 'sinful' witchcraft.
(Context: made as a jab at the Eucharist & the dichotomous logic under a forum )
"God Brand + Drinking Blood = Blessed, Saintly, Angelic, Salvific - Churchcraft/Clericcraft
Non-God Brand + Drinking Blood = Accursed, Sinful, Demonic, Damnific - Witchcraft"
B) The practice of Clerics, particularly in fantasy, acting as conduits for their Patron Deity-Derived miracle working; theurgy.

It's often 'my clean clericcraft' & 'their wicked witchcraft' with these folks.
I prefer clericcraft oriented party members when I play RPGs.
