Yup. Heck, there's nothing in it that would even support free will, and if there's no free will, I really see no reason to believe in magick or spirit at all.

Look in the mirror. Who are you? Are you the face you see? Or the animo inside you that keeps you ticking and all your physical and mental faculties functioning?.
You are also mechanical and magical. And you better believe that it is your soul that keeps you alive and moving. Your soul is the battery of your body and your very existence.
Your body is like a car, and your soul is the driver.and it can only be separated when you expire.

It is only mechanical if you make it that way. You can live a very spiritual life, but it is a choice, just as it is a choice to live a very mechanical life. You dont have to, you choose to.

Nope.
If we want to see mechanics, we see mechanics. If we want to see spiritual and mystical, we see that as well.
With quantum physics though, we now have the ability to SEE, with our NAKED EYES, such wonders as an object in two places at the same time. You can do an expirement on your table top, showing that light is both a particle and a wave, and it all depends on how you look.
Quantum physics shows us that how we look actually affects the things we are looking at. If that's purely mechanical, I don't think that spiritual can have a definition. Quantum physics basically says that we define our own universe, and that's what my faith teaches me as well.

Well, even science doesn't have all the answers yet. It doesn't seem so mechanical even by considering the fact that the theory of the creation of the universe is still...only a theory. =)

Not at all. God wants us to BELIEVE He exists, not KNOW that He exists. That's why God likes hiding behind "natural" forces. If one recognizes that God might not exist because the Universe may have just happened on its own but still choose to believe in Him, that is what real faith is.

It seems too mechanical to have happened by chance. My God is highly intelligent, "chance" is not.

it is mechanical to a point however i believe that science has made it
more mechanical so they could try to explain the unexplainable.

Doesn't the universe seem a little to complex to have arisen out of chaos to form such complex order, that it is incomprehensible?
