All I need is a miracle
As a poster previously said before I agree in that this paper was hard and confusing. However i did get a gist that it talked about the comparance of science and magic. I remember reading an article on how they discovered scientific answers to what really happened when Moses parted the Red Sea to help the Jews escape from the pharaoh. Though the article stated some really good ideas about what happened it didn't really give a solid answer. Though I believe that what happened was probably exaggerated or scientific I do believe there's a difference in magic and miracles I'd define Moses parting the Red Sea as a miracle. I believe that magic is more held for spiritual ways rather than religious. Magic is more of a belief, tradition, or idea that is practiced. However I find that magic is completely separate from religion. Magic is practiced by individuals or cults that believe it's real and that actually put time and effort into it. Miracles however are more something that you come upon. Such as a need for more money and finding a hundred dollars on the street. Those type of things can't be explained by science nor can they be achieved by magic... unless of course you deliberately practice a spell for wealth or superstition... but then again there is prayer and maybe that itself is magic?
