When I used to be New Age I believed that not believing in magic gave you a resistance to it because Quantum...
Accepting the truth that magic ain't real was tough
Science is magic if you don't know how it works so you can always re-establish your beliefs
I prefer... Any technology indistinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced
This simple statement explains the entire human history of religion.
As a kid I asked a friend's dad who was a chemist if magic was real and he replied "Do you think anyone would go into years of schooling for engineering if a shortcut existed?"
