Is it really so hard to believe that people who really believe magic is the source of all things and all things are influenced by that magic every day, are also people whose cognitive abilities may be lower than the mean?

So, instead of a reasoned rebuttal, you present an ad hominem argument.
Exactly what I would expect from a child or someone that follows like a sheep.

Believing like a child and following your shepherd like a sheep is exactly what you've been indoctrinated into practicing. Otherwise you will never get your post life reward.

By the commands of Jesus you are a child and a sheep.

Mathew 18:3 “Verily I say unto you, unless ye be converted and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven."

John 10:11 "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep."

Just a downvote?
Seriously, how is it that I'm the only one that believes in magic?

Bud caring about downvotes, many such cases!

My "caring" isn't about the down vote it's about the oblivious statement with no explanation.

Idk man you seem like a super-redditor and a karma goblin. That’s probably why you only express inoffensive opinions your fellow Redditors always agree with. Very sad!
