I live in Phoenix too! It didnt rain for over 100 days, right?

Magic is illusion, plain and simple.

Magic is not real.
Spirit can do everything.

1. It really pisses me off when people insult me, and then close the thread.


2. The power of suggestion is EXTREMELY potent.

I shall make one comment on this thread that I have made before: You use 100% of your brain, thought we do not know exactly what ever little peice does, you're using all of it. The "you only use 5%" is a misinterpretation of the fact that you do not use all of your neurons at once. However, if you were to use them all at once, you would have a seizure. The fact is that smarter people use less neurons to do the same tasks because they don't need to go through as many steps.

Telepathy is fake. Get over it, the world is boring with nothing extraordinary going on. Well, with exception to quantam physics and celestial objects such as neutron stars and black holes. The interesting things of the Universe are either unbelievably massive or infinitely small. We're kinda stuck in the middle with nothing going on.

Try getting a chick that you met on the net that lives in the same metropolis as you, and do her in the same night you first meet her.

Then your magic is real biggrin.gif

Most hypnotists use an audience member they know is seceptable for their tricks. They do some stuff that is minor and the audience doesn't really pay attention, but if someone reacts in a specific way, he chooses them.

Some decks have every other card the same, so it'd be something like: 1353J363K3... so that it looks all different when you flip through quickly, but it's not. Accompanied with that is sometimes a slight indent in some of the cards so that they can be reversed and picked out of the deck at will.

A Svengali deck wink.gif

Every 2nd card is the same, but also is slightly shorter than the rest... when fanning them forward, every second card sticks to the one before it, and gets skipped, so it looks like a normal deck, then when going the other way, the opposite occurs, so it looks like the entire deck is of one card, add to that the ability to cut to a "3" at any point, and it makes for quite the good effect biggrin.gif

Woot, go quantum mechanics. I could be here, or here, or in both places at once. Or, I could have gotten here, before I accually arrived!

Magic... what type of magic? Like making a thing dissappear? Or conjuring? OR alchemy?

No specifications were made in the first post, so you can go ahead and talk about any kind of magic.

And you know this how?  Have you ever lived in the desert?  I live in one.  I've heard stories of the Navajo doing rain dances, and making it rain.

Think it really rains in the desert?  I've lived here in Phoenix almost a year, and it's rained twice.  So they saw the clouds comming eh?  Yeaaaahhh....  Right.
Conjuring and Magic are two differences.

Yeah.. stories are stories.. I once heard a story that my town used to be ruled by a giant crockpot named Fred, but I think I'm going to avoid that. You may believe what you want, but I'm just saying, it's fully 'spiritual.'

(And I am one of those people who don't believe in anything spiritual tongue.gif)

Well then, how come these Navajo only want it to rain twice a year? That doesn't sound very effective. It sounds like they could very easily end desertification. I don't think its going to stop raining if the Navajo are killed off.

Magic do not exist. Such thing cannot exist. It violates the law of the universe.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Centreri on 2006-06-03 at 13:50:27
Or bends/manipulates the law. What law, anyway?

I believe that magic in all forms could be real, possibly in a parallel universe (uberwoot.gif) where the 'Magic' bubble is filled in.
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Detestable_Evil on 2006-06-04 at 16:07:34
Magic? Certainly!
So what if we can not see it?
So what if we have not any proof (if we do then yay!)?
We may find it someday.
Magic I think is just another existence's science with it's own logic applied onto it so it doesn't get out of hand.
Everything exists, absolutely everything that we can or can't think of indeed exists if we exist, at least that's what I personally think.
(I didn't go off topic did I?)

Magic is for fairy tales.

After seeing some of the posts here, I see why I havn't posted on the forums much lately. I mean, wow. I thought you guys were smarter than that.

Magic does exist. Both kinds exist. The natural magic of deception and illusion. The unnatural magic which employs the use of imps and other to carry out the tasks. Those involved are playing a dangerous game with affairs of this life and the next. Familiars may start out friendly. As your need for more grows, familiars may not be so kind. Yes, magic is real, oh so real.

I shall pose the question again this time without a picture so it doesnt go off track.

Is magic real?
[right][snapback]493059[/snapback][/right]


vague but interesting. I don't believe in magic. I have a feeling maybe depending if i'm on somthing but.. whicka (whitches magic) may have some truths to it but still it's almost pure balony to me. It was based on intimidation, just a guess really but i doesn't go along with moden thinking.

Wicca is real. My brother practiced it while in prison.

Ever heard of: Mind Over Matter ???

That's all Wicca is. Mind Over Matter. You believe in something enough and keep telling yourself it's real, it does in fact, become real.

I wish it was real, but I can't beleive it for the same reason I can't beleive in God, there's simply no evidence to back its existance.

That being said, "real" magicians are nothing but illusionists. All of them.
