Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

Lawful evil would be doing this to someone with severe mental health problems, like gang stalking delusions. Leaving biodegradable handmade art somewhere and laughing because a religious zealot is giving themself the vapors is chaotic neutral at worst.
I mean.
I hear you, but they're not synonymous. Plenty of religious zealots are that way because it's an easy avenue for control over others, and how much they believe of their chosen religion is an open question. If it's a sliding scale of mental health issues, religious zealots are closer to 'just get therapy and deal with some shit' than 'needs medication to understand that their neighbor, mail carrier, coworker, and that random guy that passed them in the street aren't colluding to ruin their life.'
Fair nuance. I wouldn't diagnose a millionaire megachurch priest who has bought a private jet with the money gained from fooling people with a mental illness, but the people who stand to gain nothing but have reached such a mental stunlock that they actively fight against the evidence that they're getting abused when it's presented to them are a different matter.
