We Pagans who practice magic have a very different view of what you consider magic. As Aleister Crowley put it, "Magic is the science and art of causing conformity with Will" {okay, I paraphrased.}
Any willful act, from blowing the nose, to having a baby, to lighting a candle; is magic. It dosen't need to be a ritual or whatever, just something you want to happen that does.
Yes, it may sound silly to lump it up with the idea of ritual, but it's just as silly to claim everything is a miracle of a sky fairy [at least in this view, it's a miracle of ourself]

I really can't let it go that you don't believe in magic yet you are willing to call gods magic valid ....ever hear of a natural occurence . Is the truth void of fantasy so hard to handle?
So keep that in mind next time you conjure up a god .

I don't think you really understand what magic is...
And I don't think this is a real question. Just what sort of answer are you looking for? There's no good answer to that question. It's a major generalization without context.
