In contrast, real miracles can be proven to be miracles, and that leads to the kind of questioning of assumptions that changes the world, while illusionists remind us to beware of frauds, but only when they reveal that they are illusionists. I honestly admire a great performance, but with all due respect, too much damage has been done to the world by performers who step over this line.
