In HP it is stated that Magic schools are there everywhere in this world, just HIDDEN from the muggles. Now do u think that such magic school really exists in this very world? And they r just hidden from us? And they teach subjects like Transfiguration, Potion, Charms and Spells, Herbology (any kind of study about magic), Wandlore, magical creatures....?

Do u believe magic/sorcery/witchcraft/wizardry school really exists?

Science cannot exists without Miracles, they compliment one another. what exactly is this "FACTS"
What one perceives is "facts" for oneself.
what u believe I may not. and so all of them are "facts"!?
Science "believes" in many things, But only those which arent "believed" but rather "Understood" can be "FACTS".
SO all those things Science has failed to explain, Man does with the help of God, or Miracle or whatever--Its ur wish.

Wasnt it one of the greatest scientists ever , Einstein, who once said that "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind."
Christianity for instance believes in Miracles, and a much more crudely used world Magic is oft related to Miracles. So do all other Religions in their own unique ways.

But I dont want to go out of the way and diverge the attention from the Topic,
Personally I think that the conventionally "believed" meaning of Magic and Miracle dont appeal to My senses. I may have my own ideas of these and I dare not claim myself to actually "understand" them as such either,
But as far as this question goes, I have said this b4 and say it again that Magical School or whatever cant possibly exist at least not that beautiful 'everything is possible' world of Magic(Read Kinda Magic In HP).


ps: Aromal, dont worry abt school and the science they teach u in there...Believe me Eistein was only too right when he said that Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school.
and U dont need to believe in any of that Science and tell urself to be skeptical for It doesnt matter what u believe..It all cums to Just mugging it all up and parroting it during Examination.
Ur future is safe if u can do that and then u can believe absolutely anything u want. Ur belief doesnt change the fact that u have to by heart everything, whether it appeals to ur brains or not is a different and weightless issue altogether for a student!😉

Well said lakshmi.....😆 anyway i wanna comment on that red coloured line: ok, i am not saying that such kind of magical world exists where everything is perfect and possible. But i am talking about HP magical world, where they have troubles, worries and sadness , everything like real people.

U see, in HP's magical world, pepole havew to study in school (like we do) to learn magic, which means thay will have to go thru hardship.....

I am talking abouty that kind of magical school, or wolrd....hope u understand what i'm saying..😳

c'mon yaar, though we must not draw a line for our Imagination,
we ,must draw one b/w Fiction and reality (well when I myself questioned the word "Fact" I cudnt have possibly used it here😆).
C'mon all this Magic in HP is nothing But HP..

Of course One can choose whichever liberal view one likes but My adamant Brain refuses to open its doors to this at least 😊 😆
