The HypnoPope™ asked:


Everything we are and everything we have accomplished is both a result of the existence of and our understanding/using these fundamental forces: strong force, weak force, electromagnetic, gravitation. While our understanding of these is not perfect in all cases, we can work with and predict them and (important in this question) their interaction.

Now if magic existed I would expect some great big honking hole in these theories, a missing part, a question mark. It’s not there. So what is it that you think makes magic work?

Bonus question: given the nature of people, why hasn’t anyone used magic to rob a bank or similar?
suggested category: Science Mathematics Physics. Yeah, that would have been a riot.
Donna F: you’re always welcome to answer my questions.
I see many people here who don’t understand the first thing about quantum physics and use it as some kind of magic buzzword. Feel free to consider yourself ignorant.
tawaen: that is a fantastic answer.
Neutral, I usually respect your answers, but Parapsychologists proved statistically, and under proper conditions, that the human mind is capable of telekinesis and clairvoyance more than 40 years ago. is bunk. Provide your proof.
