Kabbalah, the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn...Alchemy...Mysticism. Don't you want to learn more?

I already can do alchemy, by turning lead into gold by smashing it a thousand-or-so-times in a particle accelerator. I can do magic too. It's just sufficiently advanced technology to our primitive society full of selfies and people who don't even know the signer of the Declaration of Independence. Mysticism, I can't really do that. Since I don't know what mysticism specifically is.

Are you being facetious? To turn lead into gold you need the philosopher's stone (No not that thing from FMA) and I doubt you have that, only the most skilled of Alchemists', and powerful of people own the amalgam for it.. Magic IS Mysticism ; Look into the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, and/or Kabbalist Alchemy/Kabbalah

How could you get a philosopher's stone?

A philosopher's stone is most likely evil in origin..It's strange, but that show Full Metal Alchemist was very much a warning to people..And it flew over everyone's heads. FMA was entirely Kabbalistic. The Evil Eye. The Pentagrams. EVERYTHING was literally based on Kabbalah. Either way...You must know the right people to obtain them. Nikolas Flamel found it through a Jewish Converso..Perhaps the amalgam is still out there, somewhere..

Who wants to see a below-zero flame? It's made by liquid nitrogen being exposed to an ambient temperature, in which it will boil extremely quickly and make a sort of sub-zero flame. Or something like that. It'll probably be better off if you use triethylborane exposed to air.

"people who don't even know the signer of the Declaration of Independence." "signer of the Declaration of Independence" "signer" I see a problem here

i can do alchemy, all i have to do is mix baking soda with vinegar and BAM, alchemy. i can also do magic, by placing a blanket over a person and flipping a hidden switch to make them fall down a shaft, then i take off the blanket and BAM, magic. but, i cant do mysticism, because what on earth is that?

Magic sounds cooler, it's not bound by logic. Magic (depending on version) might require nothing in order to be used. Science is cool, though. ... And that's why Imperial Guards are psychic.

Mysticism: "belief that union with or absorption into the Deity or the absolute, or the spiritual apprehension of knowledge inaccessible to the intellect, may be attained through contemplation and self-surrender. 2. belief characterized by self-delusion or dreamy confusion of thought, especially when based on the assumption of occult qualities or mysterious agencies." ... And that's why Imperial Guards are psychic.

Eh, whoops. Signer is for someone who does sign language....Or a person who puts his name as a token of agreement. So, eh, could be signer. And then I realized that the Declaration of Independence had many people sign it. So, uh, yeah.

Magic is the science of knowing your Creator's procedures in conjunction with your mind, your pineal gland. You hold the keys to other realms. To wisdom, material wealth, everything, really.

Magic and science are fundamentally the same, yet they are logically different. That's what divides them. ... And that's why Imperial Guards are psychic.

Exactly. Where as Science is guided by physical laws, Magic is guided by spiritual.

Truly, I can understand now what you mean by magic. But I'm afraid to tell you I can simulate magic by my understanding of science, while not entirely performing magic.

@Ave Oh, you mean, you prefer the easy explanation, the apathetic decision for life's purpose? You're simply a pawn. And my Guardian Angel personally influences you. Haamiah loves the non-spiritual, he influences them daily.

*the explanation that actually makes sense and has evidence to support it sorry harry donger, but half of the stuff you keep acting like is "wew lad magic!!" can be done by science and the other half is nonsense
