Science and magick.

Research and superstition?

This is no longer how we need to see this duality. In fact, the binary opposition of science and magick is hugely reductive. The two exist on a spectrum of truth. The science is in! Magick is real, baby!

When armed with this knowledge, how does the internet handle it? Do they utilize it for some greater understanding and to bridge gaps in scientific and philosophical communities? Well, if you think using astral kung-fu and accidentally cursing your girlfriend will accomplish those goals, then I guess they’re on their way.
