Okay. Since this is a Religion Vs Magic topic, I am gonna go and not try to do vs between those two, but rather to try explain them in my own way, how I percive the whole thing.
First of all, taken from the first post, when we talk about magick, we talk about paranormal fantasy, paranormal in general, creatures, magic etcetra.
As for religous types of disccussion, we are basicly taken upon one of the most relevent and the top of all faiths, the Legends and Tales of Jesus Christ. And Bible, yes, and Bible.
In my opinion, there are alot of things that christanity, does not explain, neither offer a subject between faithfull followers.
One, maybe the most wonderd between some of christians and non - Jesus followers:"Follow God, do good deeds, follow the ten written commands, and you shall get back to Heaven and rejoice with God" 'nd someting like that (sorry folks, I am not to familiar with the Bible in person).
"You shall get back to God"
People love to respond:"Why the **** are we here anyway, if God's kingdom is so beatifull, why the heck do with need to stay on this planet and listen to the gobberish law and stuff" and you know what I mean.
So I am gonna put just a litle something on the top of that, to make it look more, well, ya know, meaningfull!
Let's say, well, people say, God's paradise is wonderfull, full of Magic,and beatuies, and things like that. And the only thing we had to do to stay in that realm, is to serve God. How did we surve him? By offering him fun and playing with him.
But we chose to be our own masters, so, becuse we we're needed to follow God, and we chose to follow our own wishfull desires, be the masters of ourselves, we ended up here on Earth. Practialy, if you think, here you are the master of your self. Right?
But, since we chose (not get banished) to go from Heaven to planet Earth, we we're still awfully attached to the Heaven, and we rememberd everything about it. The magic, the beatuis, the mind tricks. We knew it all, on Earth.
We knew what we we're suppose to do if we wanted to get back to God's place (I won't be explaining that right now), but some of us persistently willed to stay on this crapy old planet (yes I know, I was stupid, I regret the discission).
To further notice, the longer you stay on Earth, logicly, the more you enjoy being your own master, logicly, you discover more way to be a master of everysthing in your possesion, and LOGICLY, you are departing from the memories you we're so bound to, the memoris of Heaven and God, or explaining it other wise, Magic.
Yes, the more tehnology that we project into our future, the more we dump the paranormal ways. Hmm, how the heck did they built piramids? Hmm, and awfully heavny question....
The science says, we only use 13 percent of our brain. The subcounscius, has barely been touched yet.
Ok, I got bored. Let's talk 'bout something else. Dieing - refered in the last post. Where do people go where they die? Do they even go anywhere? What about Soul? Does it exist? I think it's lame that you die and just - Warning:"Your oparative sistem 'Body', is now shut down. Enjoy the rest of your "life", in the same state as if you would be sleeping. Bye Bye..." I wouldn't stand for that. And think people, think, why the hell, even though you know your going to die, leave your body, reincarnete, die forever, what ever you belives are, why the heck don't we try to follow our dreams as much as we can, and not sit around and get awoken when you are 70 years old, you realize you're telling your grandsons how the **** you threw your life away.
Oh, look at that, it's late, gotta go, Bai Bai!
