Magic IS real.

You're quite right.
Part of the problem is that in attempting to allow people freedom of faith and their own belief in magic, it becomes difficult to simply disallow delusion.
As such, we can only debate it intelligently and hope that others make an informed decision.

Of course you don't know if magic is real. Too many books, too many movies, too many TV shows. Perhaps it was better when magic was "secret". So, does real magic exist? Yes, it does; but not in the way most young people now think of it. Magic is all around you, and it is as natural as breathing. If you learn to meditate, to visualise, to connect with the enormous energy of the Earth, you will find magic.At the least it will improve your life, the way you think. At best it will open doors you never knew were there!
Yeah magick is wonder.in other words magick is unexplained science.but noone can grow wings or become werewolf or vampire.magick cannot bring anything against nature.but most guys dont understand it.though there r threads saying it is not possible again some newbie start thread 'HELP ME BECOME VAMP'HELP ME GROW WINGZ ETC. All twilight or underworld fans
magic is real look at our past and you will see that it is real.
but if you are new ofcourse it will not work straight away, you must give it time. magic will only work for you if you believe in it

Nobody ever said magic wasn't real. However you forget that in the past the concept of "imagination" was somewhat obscure. Imagination could very well be the same as visions, dreams, prophecy, or magic. I give you the example of the wonderful work of fiction... The Divine Comedy. Quite possibly the first science fiction trilogy.
I suggest exploring history before discussing what is "real" or not. I'm rather tired of people justifying all varieties of magical fantasy with "because they did it in the past!"
Eruedrithe, you'll find a lot of fluffy spells on here- You just have to sort the wheat from the chaff and get used to it. Yes, it does get annoying, but at the end of the day, trust the ones with actual knowledge and experience.
Magick is real, misconceptions about magick are not. If you know how to use it properly, and actually know its history, you will find its very real.
It strikes me that this site is a life education in that it is reflective of living. That is, in 'real life', we are not presented with just truth and wisdom. We are constantly bombarded with conflicting messages, predjudice, arrogance, ignorance, tricksters, and so on.
If you want to survive in this life, you have to exercise a certain ability of judgement, discernment, intelligence, and discernment. Why would a website be any different?
For the young and inexperinced, this is a good place to learn such life skills. You will find out for yourself who and what to trust. No one ever promised any of us that life would be easy. This is life!
