"Magic is the Highest, most Absolute, and most Divine Knowledge of Natural
Philosophy, advanced in its works and wonderful operations by a right
understanding of the inward and occult virtue of things;"
so after the analysis, scientific study and testing, the philosophical inquiry, and let us say you find someone who produces reproducible
effects and these effects are from 'magic' ----the true actuation of the operators will/power to bring about the effect, does it all end
with the phrase, 'oh, i guess it's magic'? or 'wow!, it is magic" ? that would indeed be an incredible finding to see no measurable,
quantifiable, 'how did he/she do that' conclusion.
But why would someone who truly can bring about such effects practicing "magic" as quoted above, want to reveal that to such a study; the
practioner at that level would seek no such recognition, or have that as any motivation in his/her being. Just a thought.
The testing/study in itself I would like to see, but not going to find too many takers.
