How many religions practice some degree of "Magick"?

Defining "magic" as what? Requiring that the religion itself recognize it? As part of its main rites, or only that a random believer might find some way to include magic in their practice/belief therein?

Well, it can be said that all religions practice magic in some form or another. Wouldn't divine intervention through prayer qualify as a kind of magic (albeit, you ask someone else to do it)?
But if you are talking about magic that is operated by us Earthlings, then I have no idea. I'd hazard a guess at about 15, give or take.

Why do you say fifteen?
I know of Wicca, Shinto (to a certain extent), then Shamanism and Druidism...'course, I really only have a negligible amount of information on those last two, and I'm sure they could be divided to count for more religions as well...after all, isn't Shamanism generally used to refer to nearly all Native American religions, and others besides?
