| Re: What is Magic? I've read a lot of Masamune Shirow's work, (mostly graphic novels) and some of the stories he creates put forth the idea that science is the new black magic. In the future, maybe it will be possible to create people with powers that could be classed as magic, even though they would be made using science. I don't think even that could be classed as true magic, though, despite its appearance.
Personally speaking, I don't think magic should be explained. There are lots of things that could be considered as magic, some subtle, and some strong, depending on your definition, but I'd like to think that there should always be something in the universe that cannot be explained. |
