My opinion on this is a simple one: Catholic, Coptic, and Orthodox churches seem more open to the notion that their sacraments are theurgic in nature. I see less willingness to voice this possibility in Protestant denominations.

Likewise, much of what the church stands against is better placed within the category of thaumaturgy. However, there are some theurgic acts which cannot be reconciled with church teachings without a person totally abandoning all reason: the evocation and invocation of daemonic beings (as church theology defines them).
