DragonAlex97 5 September 15, 2013 Author Share September 15, 2013 My argument in a nutshell. Magic might be fun to contemplate, but its best use is a literary shortcut for storytellers. The concept is as seductive as the darkside: magic is quicker, easier, not as hard as doing real work. We live in a world where things are only accomplished by hard work. Sorry. There is no Magic. magic ant that simple its something you have to work at to be good with it just like anything else tho you can be born stronger at it then others tho that dosint mean others caint work at it to be better then the one born with it like energy was simple for me to do and start having energy fights with people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow proof is never something that can be presented. In an entire world full of supposed mystics and people claiming power, none seem to be willing to hurl so much as a lightning bolt on camera. Why should I take it on faith when it's all invisible...or should I say: make believe.

Raritas 6,820 September 15, 2013 Share September 15, 2013 There's so much we don't know about, so I guess anything is possible. Me, personally, I can't see magic being possible at the moment, although I believe in the paranormal ideas such as ghosts and spirits, so I guess we all think different things. "Sometimes I wish I could imagine myself 10 years from now, out of college, living life without boundaries. But, at the end of the day, it's just a step closer to the future. The future tends to unfold as it should... well, at least I think it does." - Kitty0706 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galen 1,354 September 15, 2013 Share September 15, 2013 As someone who's generally a man of science, I would say that magic hasn't been proven yet to exist with any reliable and repeatable experiments or testing medthodology. But at the same time, human understanding of the way the universe works is still incomplete. In short, it has not been proven to exist but I'm not going to say any absolutes beyond that. This. We haven't been able to prove the existence of magic or the supernatural but it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Tho if nothing else, the supernatural is by definition impossible to explain through scientific means. Someone also mentioned that it is likely the supernatural exist, something I agree with, but humans themselves are unable to make use of its power, which is possibly because we belong in a different plain of existence, a physical one, whereas things like spirits and magic belong in a metaphysical realm. I doubt it's impossible to achieve a state where one can obtain a deeper connection to the metaphysical, but we're mentally geared in a way that prohibits us from doing so. The human brain only uses a fraction of its full capacity after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adente 1,000 May 28, 2014 Share May 28, 2014 Magic isn't real, its all illusions, misdirection, and sleight of hand. But thinking about that when watching magic tricks is lame, the fun is in just enjoying the show and letting yourself be sucked in and deceived. Its fun! But no, magic isn't real.

Dddrgn 450 May 28, 2014 Share May 28, 2014 Magic? No. There are certainly scientific phenomena that may seem like magic though. "You must never give in to despair.

TalonIceblade 13 May 28, 2014 Share May 28, 2014 i believe that to some degrees magic exists aside from events that science cant explain and i believe all people are born with the potential to perform said magic but this potential wanes as you age and lose faith in magic which is why it is so rare to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celtore 2,770 May 29, 2014 Share May 29, 2014 (edited) Of course not. Spells can act as placebos, but there's no way they actually work. Science may not cover absolutely everything, but magic offers nothing to be examined or any evidence that it worked in the first place. I could claim that hugging a boulder for 6 hours cured my cold and that's just as credible as magic spells and the like. The people that would try it long enough would either convince themselves their cold symptoms have faded or that they may have done something wrong. Maybe they stopped hugging the boulder for a few seconds or maybe the boulder they chose wasn't the right size or positioned right. Or perhaps they should have just gone to the drug store and picked up some relief medicine... Edited May 29, 2014 by Celtore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khaoios 1,970 May 29, 2014 Share May 29, 2014 Magic, doesn't exist, IMO, b/c most of it would be consider "scientific". However, like some have mentioned before, there are some "magical/strange" phenomenons that occur that science itself cannot answer, so is it real or not..................is an unknown answer.

Arctic Night 884 May 29, 2014 Share May 29, 2014 Magic is very real. It's called science. Sig made by Kyoshi. Cool things people have said about me: Never heard of him but I guess just you mentioning him is a good reason not to go anywhere near that name. (In reference to an author I suggested.)
