Do you believe in magic?.
When you were little did you ever believed that magic exsist?.
Or even now do you believe that magic has a exsistance? Do you believe it because of magicians or shows that revolves around magic?. |
I believe there are probably forces that we have not discovered yet that might seem like magic when we do discover them, but will ultimately be explained by science. I also think things can be 'magical' without actually having anything to do with the supernatural.
|
i believe in magic. its only logical. i believe that, even if magic doest exist on earth, it must exist elsewhere in the universe. we have no way of determining the size of the universe, and so we can assume it is infinitely large. in an infinite amount of time, everything WILL happen, even that which we cannot dream of. thus, in an infinite amount of space, everything imaginable and unimaginalble is. thus, magic simply HAS to exist.
|
I like to think there is a mystical side to things like love and nature. I don't necessarily believe in that sort of thing, but to pretend it's there makes reality somewhat bearable.
|
I wish magic existed, to a point. But sadly, I don't think the truly supernatural is any longer accessible to humankind. Not like it was a good idea back in the day anyhow.
Burn the witch! |

Also that kind of logic can't work since infinity isn't a value; it's a mathematical concept. There's no such thing as infinite area or volume. Not in the physical world, at least. As for being on topic, no I don't believe in magic. I believe that everything can be explained scientifically or logically, even though it may not appear so at first. I'm sure you could've guessed that already :p I did believe in it when I was a little kid though. Admit it, everyone did. |
I dont believe in anything supernatural or godly though I wish it was real.
|
I like to believe that there is magic out there somewhere. I guess I do kind of believe in it or atleast try to.
|
Hm. Well, its a possiblity. But unless it can be proved with facts, then I can't belive it.
|
No, my thought of magic being real was shattered when I saw a guy in a fake mustache pull a rabbit out of his top-hat.
|
Magic, in a historical context at least, seems to be anything that happens that we're yet unable to understand. People are able to somehow do something "magical" or something exists that is "magic" only because we do not yet have the means to explain them logically. For instance, people used to think the ability to swim was magic in some parts of the world - that it was even the work of evil to overcome such a powerful force of nature with your own body.
So yeah, I believe in magic in that sense. In every definition of the word, things that we don't understand do seem to have "magical" qualities about them, right? Besides, that rabbit-pulling, mustached man seems pretty amazing to me. 8D |
It's called an optical illusion... o.o
Surely we can't understand everything, but just saying it's "Maaaaaaaaagiiiic" is kind of... stupid... |
* I assume that by magic you mean paganistic rituals and the like, ie not simply pulling rabbits out of a tophat.
When I was wee... I didn't take to any beliefs well, I just saw the world as is. I still do pretty much, but I would say I've come to believe in some semblance of magick. Quote:

I don't believe in magic. Or if rituals that allowed one to defy the logic of the universe (such as creating something out of nothing at will) ever existed, it is dead.

Real numbers multiplied by real numbers can never equal infinity. Is that enough of a true statement? Then that's my proof and every other point I've made before can just be forgotten about. Anyways, I think we're derailing this topic. If you wanna continue debating then PM me or something. I don't want either of us to get warnings. -EDIT- Quote:

14 billion's pretty silly considering the earth is approaching 5 billion (based on studying the rock, not light). 13 trillion, the other estimate, makes more sense.

These days I try not to believe any one thing is truly non-existent. The universe is a big place, after all.

If you consider supernatural stuff to be a form of "magic", then sure, I believe in it.

I kinda do like god can turn nothing into the world and that kind of stuff.

I tried being Wiccan for short time (don't ask) and I suppose you could say I believed in magic then. I don't believe in it anymore, but I do believe in the Doppler effect which is the first step toward showing that the universe is expanding and that it is about 14 billions years old which means that we can only see what exists within 14 billion light years of Earth and that there is no way of knowing what exists beyond that limit. I'm fairly confident magic doesn't exist there, but it's fun to let your imagination run wild sometimes.

This thread has generated a lot of discussion for just being a thread in Other Voting Polls, since this forum is usually used for threads with simple answers. Granted these are simple answers, a lot of users show interest in actually discussing the belief of magic and its turned into more of a discussion thread than anything.
I'm going to leave the poll up so people can continue to vote on their opinion, but seeing as how discussion has come from this topic, I'm going to move it to Other Chat, where threads with such discussion are often kept. n_n |
No, and I wish there was a more concrete option such as a clear "no" to state so.
|
I don't believe in magic, I believe in illusion... like the illusion that PC is entertaining. :D

Nah its all a sleigh of hand or smoke and mirrors. Nothing like that any more. I don't remember if as a kid i bought into it much.

I guess I would say I believe in "magic" But I wouldn't really call it that. I'm just one of those people who are open minded about everything. And There is the Wiccan magic out there, stuff like that. And I do believe in it.
|
I'll believe it if I see it
|
I'm a level 12 paladin, of course I believe in magic.

Now, I'm not accusing you of anything, I'm not entitled to... I just hope people know enough about Wicca to believe in it (and what it implies) more than Wikipedia would tell anyone. |
I'll believe in magic when I see scientific proof of its existence. Until then...
|
I don't believe in magical spells and wizards, but I do believe in a "feeling" or "presence" of magic when in a certain state of mind.
|
oh my god what's with all the friggin' titles with crappy grammar in them?
And yes, I do. Though I don't consider it magic. I believe in hypnotism and all that stuff, but not like making a rabbit appear in a hat. |
Yes. Err, not magic magic, but mind tricks and things. I've hypnotized myself, so yeah. I also believe in Witch Craft. I'ma Wiccan, err atleast, I want to be. :P.
|
There are people aside from kids that actually believe in magic?
|
All unexplainable phenomenons cannot be termed a magic. For eg. Our existence itself is Magic. No one knows how we all came into existence. Did we all come into existence by Magic? What about Bermuda Triangle?
Magic is more about tricks and illusions. So, there is nothing wrong in believing it.. |
Thats a very good question and I will say; yes I do believe in magic, if there were dinosaurs, then why not dragons? xD all the talk about unicorns and othet mystical creatures and places, people say its all just in myths and stuff people once made up years ago. But personally I've always said "You just never know what could be out there" After all no one in this entire world knows every single little detail about it and all its places, so who knows. But yeah I believe in magic as well as supernatural things ^^ as crazy as that may sound xD
|
Magic itself is a Devil's Proof, so it can't be denied.
But ahh, it's useless, it's all useless! I won't ever surrender! |
Not really believe in magic.
Magic is just playing tricks on our eyes believing that there's really magic... :D |
Sorry to be a bit off topic but the topic name always makes me laugh because it reminds me of that dexters lab episode were they go to chubby cheese for his birthday or something and then the mechanical animals start singing about magic and stuff and well you get my point i think XD
|
I did. When I was about five.
|
Yes, I believe in the magic.
|
I don't believe in magic, it's all tricks and stuff. Although I wish it's real.
But I do believe in psychics, since I've experienced it. |
im sure there is magic in the world, we jus tneed to find it. so yes, i do.

I do not believe in magic, I believe in illusions. There might be things that might appear to be magic, but are not. Making medicine out of herbs was considered magic in medieval times, but is it really magic? No, you're just dropping plants into a stew. |
I used to love magic when I was little, and belive in it as well.
Nowadays, not so. Dunno why. :P |
I don't believe so much but i enjoy it.........
|
I believe in a religion, simply because I believe in a higher power.
That said, I don't believe in magic. Ironic, huh? But yeah, I'm kinda like "I won't just believe anything just like that, bring proof & yada yada", but still believe in something more than what I see or can be proven. Basically, I don't believe in magic, but if by some chance it turns out true, I won't be suprised. |
