[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 8155772, member: 63508"] To me One definition of science is the systematic knowledge of the physical or material world gained through observation and experimentation. Magical science is when much of OR a major part of observation is unknown and thus parts of the knowledge is unknown and can never be known. Technological science is when much of OR a major part of observation is known and the part that are unknown now can be known in the future via the development of other technology Magic has gaps that require being a god to see. Technology just needs technology to be better. It isn't unpredictability nor repeatability nor mystery. It's that the wizard knows that wiggling his fingers [I]this[/I] way, saying [I]these[/I] words, and thinking of [I]that[/I] makes a crack then a foosh then a boom. The wizard doesn't know why those actions, speech, and thoughts does it. He may know how to tweak the boom with his fingers but he doesn't know exactly why it the tweak happens. [/QUOTE]
