So we have heard of holy people, witches, magicians, sorcerers, savants, and inexplicable ‘skills’. I have personally experienced such phenomenon, first-hand and as a subject. I will make my own position clear momentarily.

Here are the common opinions on offer: all of that is just make-believe and invented ‘explanations or descriptions’ of phenomenon that are (relatively) completely explicable. Other people think: I have no idea what that is, it’s bizarre. Other people think: that is God, Angels, Demons, Magicians, Witches, and Magic. Some people are thinking it is prodigy. Some people think it is trickery or observer-deception. Others perhaps suspect that it may have to do with undiscovered aspects of our nature or humanity.
