We'll start way back in history to give some kind of historical perspective to this; we'll go back to the first century BC and the tiny kingdom of Phrygia. There was a philosopher by the name of Epictetus and it was Epictetus who said "Appearances are of four kinds: things either are as they appear to be; or they neither are nor appear to be; or they are but do not appear to be; or they are not and yet appear to be.

From; A Talk by G. Edward Griffin
Author of The Creature from Jekyll Island

Is our magic, to our audience, of the first, second, third or forth kind?
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

All of the above if done right.
You know why don't act naive.

I am not sure about the second kind.

They are to our audience it seems to me of the forth kind.
