That's why magic is the go-to answer for anything they can't explain or don't want to accept. You can tell them magic is not real all day, every day and it won't make a difference. If they're like Randy, they'll feign phony outrage over semantics. In reality, they're frustrated because atheists won't consider make-believe magic to be evidence of god.
The fact that no one ever gives the slightest indication of how these powers are supposed to work shows that they do not understand them, nor could it be possible for them to actually know about them.
WHAT ABOUT GRAVITY?!!! We see the effects of gravity constantly. We can model it accurately, so we understand its effects. We make predictions and we test them. That's science. Don't make crappy equivocations. Really, stop it! Stop!
"He just does stuff" is neither accurate, specific, testable nor useful. We haven't learnt a single thing by jumping to this conclusion by the argument from ignorance. We've just given up on scientific inquiry because it's too hard or isn't getting answers fast enough.
