  • Hey, thanks for taking up my challenge!
    You have a good definition of miracles, but I’m not quite convinced about your definition of magic. Magic in the sense I am thinking would fit more in the realm of your definition of miracles.

  • Hello, Magic Wielders! I have an argument to present to you.
    There is no such thing as magic. Well… duh. But I mean not even in fantasy worlds. Not even when wizards with magical staffs shoot lightning at each other or blast cities apart with their minds.
