#1 Real magic is made up of three categories: mental influence of the physical world, perception of events distant in space or time, and interactions with nonphysical entities. The first type is force of will, and it’s associated with spell-casting and other techniques meant to intentionally influence events or actions.

#2 There is a new realm of knowledge that exists between mind and matter, and it’s called magic. Magic doesn’t mean no cause, but rather that we haven’t yet developed scientifically acceptable theories to explain these effects.

#3 The third category of magic is theurgy, which is the belief that magic is real. NDEs, the works of William Friedkin, and the writings of Michael Shermer all suggest that there may be forms of disembodied awareness, or spirits. But so far, there’s no strictly objective way to tell if that’s the only viable interpretation.

#4 The idea that we can find evidence of the paranormal or supernatural is completely false. Every so often, its tentacles brush our leg, causing shivers to shoot up our spine. It’s that electrifying quality that makes magical fiction so captivating, magical stage illusions endlessly entertaining, and magical fraud so easy to perpetrate.
