That sounds eerily similar to a quote by Arthur C Clarke, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."Donnavila Marie01 wrote:I just consider things which are beyond the explanation of science to be magic.

I think there's an explanation for everything and can't wrap my head around things appearing out of thin air. I would like it to be real though.

This is magic i would believe but its always interesting to watch the tricks.Insomniac07 wrote:I do believe in magic, but not the kind that happens in fantasy novels. I see magic in little things in life, like how someone who's a stranger today could turn into one of our beloved within a few days or weeks. The way flowers bloom overnight when yesterday it was just a tiny bud; isn't that magical? Yes, there is probably science behind all these, but that doesn't make them feel any less magical, in my opinion.

But if it's the regular magic talked about in books and movies, I don't believe that one. Yet, if one refers to spiritual powers and abilities as magic, I believe it exists. It really just depends on what sense we understand magic in.
