So, forgive me if this is a topic that's been discussed in the past, but 
a combination of semi-randomly reading through a WWolf sourcebook I 
bought years and years ago, along with a screening of "Frailty" I saw 
yesterday got me thinking.

If we're talking about a world where obsession and belief gives you 
power over the universe and lets you do magic, is there Theurgy or some 
other form of religion-based magic? I can see it being a huge 
stereotype-laden can of worms, of course, but I was just wondering if it 
was something that people had successfully made use of.

So, if anyone hasn't seen Frailty, I highly recommend it. I was sitting 
there for most of the movie trying to decide "Hmmmm.... is this a school 
of magic, or is this someone channeling a Witchhunter archetype?"
