As this very thing has come up in my group, I'd technically allow it. But
only for very specific religions, and only because hexslinging is the
closest to 'generic' magic DL has. Mainly I'd use it for the style of
'magic' practiced by several of the european occult groups that were being
formed in this time.

Just as a note, I'd also let Oriental bless mix in Martial arts the same
way.

But for the huckster/blessed, I'd hit him doubly hard in the blessed area
any time a huckster power was used in a manor that breaks a Blessed tennet.
Atleast making it a mortal sin, just as if a Blessed power was used to sin.
Might even add +2 to the sinnin' TN. Seeing as Huckster powers are offensive
in nature, this is probably going to lead to lots of sinnin' rolls.
