We live in a world that's becoming more and more focused on the observable every day. Magic just isn't one of those things that has been observed.

*looks into the very near future.* Yeah things might get ugly in this thread soon. Would be very surprised if it didn't. The best thing I can come up with is, if you're skeptical of spirits and magic and stuff, but really want to find out if it's real, I'd just make my job an adventurer and explore known haunted places to see what I stumble across. Maybe Archaeologist? They don't get freaked out and run away when they uncover creepy looking stuff. Either way I don't mind people who believe in them or don't, as long as they aren't continuously being a stubborn jerkwad about their beliefs and trying to shove what they believe down someone's throat and basically keep saying "I'm right! I'm right! You lose! Nyah nyah."

I wouldn't be too obessed over that kind of stuff. Just because you slap on the word "spiritual" or "supernatural" doesn't make it good. Most of it isn't good for your health.

Because there's little scientific evidence to back them up sadly. Unless of course you're talking about the drinkable kind of spirits.

Perhaps one day there'll be a logical theory to there existence, and with it more praised research would go into finding it. Then they may find some scientific mumbo jumbo particles and atoms in alternative dimensions and what not that prove the existence of the soul. It seems more beneficial to look into and find out about things we know exist, like planets and other galaxies and such first though.

That'srather hypocritical since you have that nonsense about Jesus in your sig.

Or is you obsession with god somehow less harmful than his obsession with spirits and magic? If so, why?

Acting as if everyone who disagrees with you is a myopic fool while providing no evidence to support your argument? Yeah, but he's always like that so I don't see why it should be a surprise.

There are quite a bit of dumb people out there...but even they are smart enough to know magic doesn't exist in real life. And no, Magic the Gathering doesn't count.
