Quote# 61537

Is there a possibility that Criss Angel, David Copperfield, et.al., have real magical powers? I know they said the tricks they do are just illusions and sleigh of hands... but there are some tricks they did that are just impossible for humans to do. Could they have made a pact with the Devil in exchange for great wealth, fame, and glory?

In the Bible we read there were sorcerers and magicians in the court of the Pharaoh who duplicated the miraculous feats performed by Moses... such as turning his staff into a live snake. That gives us something to think about. You can go to the Library and find many fictional novels regarding people who sold their souls to the Devil by making a pact with him for worldly fame and glory...hmmm... Could there may be some truth to it?

Why the fuck would a magician ruin what would be the greatest career ever by denying actual magic powers?

Oh wait, I'm talking to a fucking moron who believes ancient middle eastern fairy tales.

Once again we have a superstitious fucktard who thinks everything he doesn't understand is magic. Apparently home schooling is failing.

It would be nice to think so. I'd pay big if one of them made you disappear.

Your inability to figure out how a magic trick is done does not mean there isn't a trick.

If David Copperfield had real magical powers, I imagine he'd not have had the legal problems that he has had the last several years.

And Criss Angel is a tard.

Or maybe THEY'RE JESUS!

That would blow your mind, wouldn't it.

Not if you're over the age of five.

"Is there a possibility that Criss Angel, David Copperfield, et.al., have real magical powers?"

No.

"I know they said the tricks they do are just illusions and sleigh of hands... but there are some tricks they did that are just impossible for humans to do."

Uh, no there aren't.

"Could they have made a pact with the Devil in exchange for great wealth, fame, and glory?"

No. There ARE ways to do such tricks and the devil is not real.

"In the Bible we read there were sorcerers and magicians in the court of the Pharaoh who duplicated the miraculous feats performed by Moses... such as turning his staff into a live snake. That gives us something to think about."

No. Thr real thinking about that took me less than a second and was done long ago.

"You can go to the Library and find many fictional novels regarding people who sold their souls to the Devil by making a pact with him for worldly fame and glory...hmmm... Could there may be some truth to it?"

Fictional. Fictional, you dolt. You can go to the library and look up that word in one of many fine dictionaries.

@Man in Black: It'd be pretty sweet if Criss Angel turned out to be Jesus. I imagine the total number of fundies in the US would instantly drop by 20% due to cranial explosion.

but there are some tricks they did that are just impossible for humans to do.

Are you, by any chance, thinking of the ones they only ever do on prerecorded TV without a live audience present? There's a reason for that, and it sure as fuck isn't because it's real magic.

Sometime from now in the future, I'm going to be living in Indonesia, and my grandkids will one day walk up to me ask:

"Hey Grandpa, how come we live in Indonesia?"

I will tell them the truth. I will tell them that, one day there was this person and he asked the dumbest question I have ever heard.
And because of this question I had to kill him, and that is why we live in Indonesia.

Someone's seen Lord of Illusions one too many times. (That could be just once.)

Yes, stage magicians perform real magic, the girls from Cottington photographed real fairies, and spiritualists really talk with your dead mother, or aunt, or some important woman in your life whose name begins with M or possibly J.

Gullible fools who believe in an ancient fairie tale from goat herders will believe anything won't they?

Sure,
you know the one time when David made the Statue of Liberty disappear?
Well, it really disappeared. I could watch it in my UFO from terran Orbit.
The american government knows about it as well, but they keep their silence so that the american public doesn´t get unsettled.

Perhaps that is what Jesus did in order to learn the water-into-wine and loaves-and-fishes tricks.

Well, Jesus turned water into wine, pulled coins out of a fish's mouth and resurrected several dead people (without even sawing them in half first) - all illusions David Copperfield could do easily. Maybe Jesus made that pact with the devil after all. Jesus only said "It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God." It doesn't say he actually refused the temptation.
