I'll let you sit on that one for awhile..see if you can figure it out.
Well, you tell me how it would helpful. Sure it would change your views on magic, but would that be a good thing or not.
Would you go the path of learning magic and relying on adapts and hidden beings who have no proof they are your guides.
Maybe you would believe in a Creator in this instance or just believe the universe is more mysterious.
The point is you explicitly said it's all the same miracles and sorcery, they are the same and on par.
So basically you would accept no miracle and would assert it's sorcery, as Arabs per Quran accused Mohammad of being.
