Doa...find an example of a practice that didnt originate in religion and ill take your argument seriously.
Most likely is that the argument you're perpetuating comes from a rather desperate wish of "practitioners" to achieve both the recognition and seperation that led them to witchcraft to begin with.
Not that you're part of that, im just giving a nod to its probable origin, and letting you know its a dumb thing to stick by. -
I already have: witchcraft.
I'm tired of repeating myself to you. If you think it originated from religion, then fine: go ahead and be ignorant about it. I'm done. -
Lol, thats a cop out. But suit yourself
-
if magic exists then why does no one demonstrate it? i'm not talking about tricksters.
-
Because it's not in the way that you probably think magic works. It's energy, so you can't see it happening. You can probably see someone doing a spell, but it most likely won't work five seconds after it's done. Not only that, but it's a private thing, so practitioners don't want to be video taped.

where can i learn about it? i mean is there a website or something?
-
Yeah, there are lots of websites about witchcraft. You can google anything in particular about it and I'm sure something will show up.
-
If it's energy, then it's measurable. Are there any sources that show it working under reasonable scientific scrutiny?

Speaking of magic....
I may have said something about this before, but when people say magic, they mean that something impossible is made possible with magical energy.
In reality, nothing unreal exists.
That is to say that magic means only something fantastic that isnt fully understand.
If someone achieves that which is impossible, it means that it was possible all along, and however unlikely our current knowledge tells us it is, if it did happen, it happened for a reason. For instance, the first man who made fire may have been considered a mage, but we know, that combustion occurs under cataloguable circumstances.
If the things which are currently considered magic, can be achieved, then its only magic so long as we dont understand what happened.
Skeptism of "magic" is as misdirected as belief in "magic". Logically, we approach the unknown not by approaching the unkown itself, but by the nearest unkown object, and catalog it ect. Ect. -
The word magic, could almost be taken as a synonym for unknown
-
There probably aren't any sources, or none that I know of.
