Does VooDoo/Witchcraft/Magic Exist ?

As an example, a few years back, i was in my room and i thought that i had seen a ghost, i was shitting myself until i got up and saw that is was a shadow from one of the trees, and if i had not seen that tree, today i would still be talking about the "ghost" that i saw.

All "mysteries of life" have been torn apart by science.
Vodoo and all this shit will be eventually be proven to be total shit, there is no such thing as magic, what we dont understand we call magic.

magic exists. although perhaps not quite so much in the stereotypical sense but it exists.

please explain

cant. its confidential. just that it does n that i have good reason for believin it does. n thats sumthin since im a sceptic. a word of caution though 99% or more people who claim they can really do it are fakes that is also true.

plus its not always magic like mages, dragons etc. just mystical, spiritual power/miracles and its NOT connected with relegions or satan.

but you could easily attribute these percieved magical events to any existing theology.

trust me i know when it is PERCIEVED magic and when its actual mystical power. im a sceptic as i said. but somethings are undeniable{and im not saying for normal people, just some personal events} im also quite aware of the psychology involved in belief and tricking people. 99.9% of mystical claims might be false but not ALL.

If you are so skeptical you should be skeptical of your percieved ability to percieve the difference between mysticism and percieved mysticism.

It's good thing Vodoo isn't real... I don't know if I could resist... there are sooo many people, I would not mind sticking pins into lol.

i am sceptical about what i percieve.

There is the whole placebo effect. I believe that much of this stuff can occur through the placebo effect. The body can do interesting things if a person truly believes the crap coming out of another persons mouth.

ok ur thinking donnie darko magic here, {assuming from placebo affect definition} thats not it. think more like professor XAVIER telepathy or dragonball Z magic. TRUST ME i wudnt believe something without a very REAL and noticeable fact.

Did not see it, and hate the Dragonball Z. Now the X-Men, like it. But telepathy like that is crap.

Lol, no, you only sound like a religious person.

Thus "sound like." You have a belief I disagree with, it's the same thing. Religion is just a name for a type of belief, it's the same thing.

but unlike relegion i have a lot of solid undeniable evidence even if i dont share it.

{also dont just assume i feal really great about KNOWING sumthing exists which i never really believed or wanted to believe, but just like i look at evidence and dismiss relegion it would be very hypocritical of me to not accept something whichi in my point of view is fake if there is overwhelming evidence for its existance. the great thing though about mystical power is that it doesnt mess with your view on life and your decisions like relegion does}

lol, it's still the exact same thing. Especially your "evidence."
