What is/are ___________? 

Something that cannot be contained in logic....  Something that cannot be constrained by laws, something that cannot be contained in reality. So far.

Real magic is a secret of the acausal.

Shit, I forgot that one. 

I view it like an island in the Caribbean and the "psychic" that came along at 19 years to give a prophetic vision of a major disaster. And then the major hurricane came in the 20th year. And never mind the other 6 times in last century it happened. 

Some do operate on the probability surplus of ambiguity, but to speculate on what might be a legitimate means of clairvoyance. Maybe it could be via alternate modes of the subconscious, dreams, or even some altered states.

Cosmology and theoretical physics often times describe the magical and the fantastical; god metaphors, but their field often requires them to steer clear of esoteric and theistic lingo when in reality they are all just referring the same force/phenomenon in different ways.

I believe in magick

Magic is the art proving a point through vacuous posting I think. 

Anyway, I nominate this for the best use of LBM in a major single release. Specifically for calling out the military industrial entertainment complex to it's face. 

They're leftist too! 

That's the way of the West. 

I like the way System of a Down put it better. Same basic stupid slave people message though. 

Manipulating the physical vessel and its' surroundings via consciousness seems pretty magical to me.

The way I look at this. Everything is either microcosmic or macrocosmic consciousness, so you have the mind of man and the mind of God. Much of the mind of God (macrocosm) is hard coded into the physical universe - things that cannot be changed, so it's not like some Dr. Strange shit where you can just go changing/altering things on a whim, otherwise you might fuck the whole universe up, i.e go fucking up Gods' work.

I suppose there would be a bit of debate as the actual scope of that which can be changed, and that which cannot.

The main manipulation here, and what is of main importance, is the body. I consider this as an evasion.
