Cosmic is obviously highest. Divine draws upon the power of the gods. Magic & Druid draw upon the existence of powerful naturally occuring fields. Spirits draw on very minor spirits. Bard, Chi & Ninja are the effects of special training.

I don't really agree with the idea. In most of the source material, priests do not in fact blow away magicians. (If anything it's the reverse when it comes to evil magicians although there is a tendency for good magicians to be wimpy magicians.). And it's very, very hard to mess with the powers of someone who gets his woo-woo internally.
