I've decided to post a bunch of questions from Chuck Klosterman's book "Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs."
This is the first of 23 questions the author says he would ask someone to determine if he could ever love them:
1. Q: Lets say you met a rudimentary magician. Let us assume he can do five simple tricks — he can pull a rabbit out of his hat, he can make a coin disappear, he can turn the ace of spades into the Joker card, and two others in a similar vein. These are his only tricks and he can’t learn any more; he can only do these five. However, it turns out he’s doing these five tricks with real magic. It’s not an illusion; he can actually conjure the bunny out of the ether and he can move the coin through space. He’s legitimately magical, but extremely limited in scope and influence.
Would this person be more impressive than Albert Einstein?

(btw - I'll be posting 1 question a day for the next 23 days - and there are definitely questions more interesting than this. I hope everyone enjoys)
