Do you believe in magic?.

[Legobricks]

I also don't believe in alchemy. XD

... Fullmetal Alchemist? Not really what I was getting at.

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.

I just meant alchemy in general. Turning one substance into another (random example: Silver into Gold), that sort of thing.

Isn't turning one substance into another technically possible through radioactivity? o_o

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.

 

[Rolling Pichu]

I don't believe in magic, I believe in illusion... like the illusion that PC is entertaining. :D

That I'm not sure about, but alchemy also involved a bit of the "Earth, Fire, Water, and Air" elements idea, which is not actual chemistry. I won't delve too much into it now since alchemy's not really magic per se, but rather philosophy and pseudoscience.

 

[ÇyänïdëÉX]

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 don't I need radioactivity to burn paper.

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.

 

[Idiot!]

I'll believe it if I see it

 

[kohei]

I'm a level 12 paladin, of course I believe in magic.

Open-mindedness is one thing and naiveté is another.

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.

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

I'll believe in magic when I see scientific proof of its existence. Until then...

 

[Aether]

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.

 

[Guillermo]

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.

 

[Anti-Hero]

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.

 

[Harmonie]

There are people aside from kids that actually believe in magic?
