This is a yes and no answer.
I have been a student of the Occult for over 20 years. Thankfully though, Magic is vastly underrated and so deemed non-existand by many who would misuse it should they ever have their opinions about it altered.
As soon as the Adept understands the methods and concepts of the science behind it all, it no longer remains, to them at least, "Magical", therefore technically, they no longer "believe" in the magic of the Art, rather simply accept it for the thing it is.
Take Chemistry for example. Not too long ago that was under the name of "Alchemistry", or "Alchemy" as was the more popular term. Once it became understood by "mainstream" sciences, it became accepted. The name change by simply omitting the "Al" was simply for the purpose of helping the "common man" regard it as something other than the "Magical Art" it used to be classed and thought as.
People today would not consider Chemistry to be a Magical practice simply because it has become understood, to all intent and purposes, by many mainstream and influential people. Like I said, when we understand something, the mystery, therefore the Magic of it, is no longer so important as the reality of the thing itself.
Hope this helped.

Yes. There is magic in this world, but its not for everyone to learn or use. I believe that there is a price for everything.

Yes, I do, just make sure you know the light from the dark, the dark from the light, magic is a dangerous practice, so beware, but it can be good, just know, that to practice it, you have to truly belive, don't say "I'll try", because: Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try. So do.

Yes I do. And I think magic can make us more powerful.

I don't believe in anything supernatural or paranormal, but as Arthur C. Clarke said, "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic".

magic is nothing but optical illusion. Of course magick, spelt with a "k" is something different and it is real but don`t play with it unless you have some knowledge on this topic.

I know magick exists. It comes from the human abilities of creative visualization. Some can just manifest their thoughts faster than others.
