Blah. And you're right, it probably does take away the enchantment because instead of revelling in it, I'm probably asking "well how the hell did that happen?!!!" <br /><br />As for what I do find enchanting, that's easy. The sea, it's always the sea. I could sit there for hours lost in its beauty and sometimes savagery.Lisa Bhttp://jumbledstuff.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2351362401051098452.post-7080477005744012872012-05-27T17:55:09.106+10:002012-05-27T17:55:09.106+10:00Well put Skye!

I believe that there is magic,...Yes it is magical. I believe that there is magic, but that we explain it with science. So mystical stuff can and does happen, and eventually science explains some of the how. Quantum physics and parapsychology have funny little links together that cannot be fully explained, like how observing a particle (I think it's a quark) can influence the particle just through obeservance.<br /><br />I tell my girls that magic is there, we just have to look for it. It may not be what we think or be explained in the way we think, but as we uncover some of how it works we do see magic. I think some of our technology uses part of magic, all of those electrical fields and waves and frequencies we can't see with our senses. What else is out there that we have not seen?<br /><br />Anyway, science should never be an altar. it should be an investigation to bring betterment and understanding to mankind. It should not be used to debunk religions or magic because we haven't discovered everything now, have we? Not only that, who can say that the big bang theory isn't just a physical explanation of what a higher power did? It does not declare the absence of a higher power.<br /><br />Anyway, I am not a religious person. I don't subscribe to any fait in particular, I just know there is something "other" as you say, and make sure my kids know tht, because they're the next scientists, lawyers, politicians, doctors, etc that we are handing our world to.Skyemberrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00060607019331704487noreply@blogger.com
