What if it's magic...

a reply to: NateTheAnimator

I can talk and type

If you want to call God magic I can understand that, accept it even
There is something magical about God
I admit there is a God, he is miraculous.

My question was what is magic without a magician, where did it come from.
Is that to hard to understand

oops

a reply to: Raggedyman

Now are you suggesting magic created everything, where does the magic come from
You answer a question with something that demands another answer

"where does the magic come from"

same place as the rest of the universe. although i find that true magic lies in appreciation, perspective, not in elaborate miracles. with the power of genuine appreciation, everything becomes an elaborate miracle.



the past six months of that mans life were spent just tolerating everything around him, grudgingly performing his role until the day someone made him take a second look. that someone was tyler durden, a magician who turned crap into gold with an unloaded pistol. thats my kind of magic. its ironic that the greatest of our strengths only presents itself in the most tragic of circumstances. perhaps thats the price?

every spell has one.

What is creation without god? Where did god come from?


Back on topic, I find it far more likely that some groups of people in the past had better technology than others and it was interpreted as magic because they didn't understand how it worked. Imagine somebody with a smartphone during ancient Egyptian times. Liquid crystal display? It must be magic. Even something as simple (to us) as a flashlight would be considered magical to indigenous tribes or other peoples of the past.

I don't believe in magic but I know there is a being interacting with humanity. For me I'll cut number patterns over and over with a deck of cards. I'll spit and it lands in the formations of constellations. Stuff like that. There really is something manipulating reality and once you know it life is god damned weird.
