How do you know magic doesn't exist, scientists?

Science doesn't deal with what isn't, but what is.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

>> No.950949

>>950941
In other words, you don't have proof to support it's non-existence.

>> No.950952

Because what is traditionally defined as magic does nothing. Spells don't do shit. Usually any results are conscience or number games. Someone casts a death spell and that person's grandparent dies. The caster goes "Oh the spell worked, I just messed up and pointed it at the wrong person." Or someone casts a spell to hurt someone. The person cursed gets hurt a several months later. "Oh the spell worked!"

It's just bullshit. Talking to serious people who practice magic they admit that they're nothing but ritualized prayers.

I used magic to find out, turns out it doesn't exist.

being unfalsifiable =/= confirmation.
being unfalsifiable =/= science
being unfalsifiable means you have to rely on proof for it's existence rather than proof for why it doesn't exist. There is no such proof for the existence of magic.

Nice try though. All you supernatural fags need to stop using it, it's getting old.

If magic existed, scientists would harness it and it would become science.

Besides that we can do most things that would have been considered magic back in old times anyway.

Because there's a foundation that is willing to give millions of dollars to anyone who can do a magic/paranormal act and succesfuy repeat it every time.

you guys should check that quantum theory thing - it has causality travelling back in time, separated particles interacting in a sympathetic way, multiple dimensions and multiverses and the holographic "the world in a grain of sand"
