People believe in logic and cannot accept magic, however those same people believe in god. And god isn't exactly logical. A being with infinite power to do anything, if god exists, then magic should too

I believe there are forces in the universe which we can manipulate. Some call this God, some call it magic, it's all the same, and ultimately the controlling power is Faith.

I feel in esoteric/occult magic. And I feel, however cannot turn out that it has an lifestyles external of the nation-states of psychology. ie I consider spells are not looking for the recipient to feel within the lifestyles of magic, best that the caster believes it is going to paintings. If you are saying in any other case give an explanation for how climate magic, and different spells which impact that which might be most commonly appeared to be "inanimate strategies" paintings? Statement pronouncing the recipient has to feel as good because the caster, might imply that the elements has to feel in magic! Think a tough difference among magic being defined as white or black misses plenty out. As I consider magic is just a instrument, and for this reason does not have any intrinsic alignment. A blade can also be placed to a well use (surgical procedure), but it surely can be placed to a nasty use (stabbing anyone) It's best the rationale/results of it is use that might be observed to be black or white. Even then the phrases black/white are more and more being noticeable as non-PC, and are usually changed with the phrases bad and optimistic. --- A lot of what Wheatly talks approximately is quite simply a pile of "headline grabbing" garbage tying into peoples preconceived strategies. Perhaps attempt to see the 1971 movie "Simon King of The Witches" (although the magic proven is extensively the not often practised mesmerism) Also probably attempt to see Haxan (1922) for a in basic terms physiological clarification (which could also be the mannequin which Freud constructed which reconed Multiple Sclerosis is physco-somatic, with out a bodily groundwork! We recognize bigger now)

lol. This is obviously a tuffy. There is no right or rong answer.
I my-self do believe in god. But you cant compare believing in god and magic the same way. not even if they are both believed to be supernatural. the day you can do that is the day that magic gets 1.5 billion followers.
why not believe in god? hey im gonna post that! cheers.

I believe that magic is just science that is yet to be discovered.
Everything could be explained in mathematical theories, it's the universal language of GOD. When GOD intervenes, it's in an elegant way. GOD has infinite wisdom.

You don't think this is magic? Completely understanding these absolutely arbitrary symbols, and putting them together in your head. I don't even have to do anything, and you still are taking in this magic. Now that I have created this idea, from these symbols, you have made a completely different idea of what is said. All there is is magic.

Reguardless of what they say, magic touches every life every day!
Sure there may be a logical explanation for it all, but you have to admitt that there is some magic to it all!
Like----
the first time you meetthe love of your life.
the first time you hold a new born baby.
daffodills in the spring
the first snow of the winter
the color of the leaves in the fall.
watching you child take their first steps
the list goes on and on
Think about the magic that touches your ife every day!!
