DO YOU BELIEVE IN MAGIC?

I do not believe magic to be real. Illusions, yes, magic, no.

I suppose in esoteric/occult magic. And I suppose, however can not end up that it has an lifestyles external of the geographical regions of psychology. ie I suppose spells do not want the recipient to suppose within the lifestyles of magic, most effective that the caster believes it will paintings. If you assert in any other case provide an explanation for how climate magic, and different spells which have an impact on that which can be most commonly seemed to be "inanimate strategies" paintings? Statement announcing the recipient has to suppose as good because the caster, might imply that the elements has to suppose in magic! Think a tough difference among magic being defined as white or black misses plenty out. As I suppose magic is just a software, and accordingly does not have any intrinsic alignment. A blade may also be placed to a well use (surgical procedure), however it can be placed to a foul use (stabbing any person) It's most effective the cause/results of it is use that might be located to be black or white. Even then the phrases black/white are more and more being noticeable as non-PC, and are by and large changed with the phrases poor and constructive. --- A lot of what Wheatly talks approximately is with ease a pile of "headline grabbing" garbage tying into peoples preconceived suggestions. Perhaps attempt to see the 1971 movie "Simon King of The Witches" (although the magic proven is extensively the not often practised mesmerism) Also possibly attempt to see Haxan (1922) for a simply physiological clarification (which could also be the mannequin which Freud constructed which reconed Multiple Sclerosis is physco-somatic, without a bodily foundation! We recognize larger now)

By comparing Moses to the Egyptian magicians. They had a limited means of magic. The Lord God turned Moses staff to a snake .

Supernatural things are not all of God as the book of Thessalonians speaks of.

Signs and wonders of God are his doings and not the works of the enemy.

Works to deceive the elect of God will be false signs and wonders.

So for example Jesus Christ healed or raised Lazarus a righteous man. Lepers were healed in the synagogue to glorify.

False signs and wonders are employed that are not the will of god. Only limited power does the enemy have in doing them.

If the computer in front of me is not magic, I don't know what is. I don't believe in the supernatural, but I do believe in magic. Do you know what I mean?

The true magicians are engineers, and their teachers are physicists, chemists, and mathematicians.

Magic is the ability to cause change in conformity with one's will. I believe this is the simplest and most accurate definition of it and it comes from Aleister Crowley. Yes, someone can learn to perform magic if they are properly taught, and it definitely exists. How exactly it exists is debatable, but no one who doubts their ability to perform it can actually be successful at it. Your whole life you are taught that you are limited by the confines of your own physical ability and that either pure chance or powers other than you control causality and that mostly everything occurs by pure chance. The majority of people also shun the idea of magic believing it to be either delusion or outright lies, and thus they further force into your mind the idea that nothing out of the ordinary is possible(watch how much criticism arises from this discussion).

It also matters as to what you mean by magic. You can will someone to crash their car, or will them to become ill, but it is highly unlikely that you could will their car to be suddenly transported to the moon, or could will water to turn into wine.

In order to learn to practice magic you must do several things. First you must master your impulses. This actually makes your will stronger. Many techniques exist for this, anything from abstaining from sex for months on end (a set date), to a vow of silence, or merely remaining awake for extended periods of time. Anything that illustrates the conscious mind's ability to rule over the subconscious' impulses when a decision is made is sufficient.

You must establish a belief which explains why you can perform magic. Usually this belief must contradict whatever it is you were taught growing up. In essence, you must destroy your universe. You must die and be reborn. Often times it is highly likely that you will need a more experienced person to force you to let go of your beliefs. The most effective way to do this is to reveal to someone something that their current beliefs do not allow for. For me (initially) it was my best friend's ability to draw any card out of a tarot deck 100% of the time when I spoke it's name without looking at the cards. After doing this for a moment she would draw the card as soon as it entered my mind. She explained that the only thing keeping me from using my intuition for such things was that she was taught by her father at a young age using a regular deck of cards that this was possible. My brain would not let me do it because I could not believe myself capable of doing so.

"magic" is a word that has been demonized. Although you ask if we "believe" in magic, those who have caused a change in reality or causality using nothing other than belief and force of will do not believe in magic, it is not a religion. It has been proven. Were someone to recount their experiences in such an area with you, you would suffer from the same problem you will suffer from if you ever attempt to perform magic yourself. Doubt. Unless you experience it first hand you will never know the answer to your question.

No, I don't believe in "magic." I don't believe anyone can do real magic. I believe what is happening is illusion.

Magick is the manipulation of energy according to natural law in order to effect changes in the environment according to will. You do that every time you turn on an electric light, so yes, I believe in magick, and yes, I can make it work and do on a regular basis.

yes, magic is of the devil however and isnt a joke. all of the magic on TV is just tricks but ouigi boards and voodoo are some forms of magic.

Kinda. David Blaine is cool.

Yes, they just lost to Kobe and the Lakers.
