When were magic tricks invented?

The history of magic tricks is difficult to trace accurately, as illusions have been performed for centuries. Some early records of magic tricks can be found in ancient Egypt around 2500 BCE. However, the modern form of magic tricks started to develop during the 18th and 19th centuries, with performers like Jean-Eugène Robert-Houdin and Harry Houdini pioneering and popularizing various illusions.

When was witchcraft first used?

The answer to that is lost in the mists of time. Humankind has been practicing some form of witchcraft/mysticism/magic as long as we have been self aware. As a species we are uncomfortable in believing we are unable to control and/or direct the things that happen around us. So magic in all its forms arose.


Is it wrong for a Christian to be doing magic tricks for children with no demons or spirits just coin card tricks when you believe the devil does demonic magic but this is entertainment?

You ask if a Christian should do magic tricks but it would be more helpful to drop the word magic and say can a Christian do tricks. There is a huge difference between magic and tricks. A magician like David Blaine performs tricks that give the illusion of being magic. It is not magic it is simply a trick. There is nothing in the Bible that states Christians can not perform tricks. The only Biblical argument could be that you are lying, because a lot of tricks require that you state things that may not be true. Such as I am holding one coin when in fact the reality may be different. I don't think this argument holds water if the context of the performance is clear that you are going to trick ( decieve ) your audience for the sake of entertainment. Everyone understands that this is what a magician is doing. Opinion As a Christian, I would make it clear that it is a trick, an illusion. Deception is of the devil. Even very young children are capable of understanding the difference between make-believe and reality. Opinion In today's time, it is not wrong to do magic to entertain children. But 2-3 thousand years ago, if you do your magic then, you will be burned at stake(!) or, worship as god.... Opinion The Bible clearly states that REAL magic, which is done by the power of REAL demons, is wrong, sinful, and should not be done. The truth then is still the truth now. But illusion is a totally different thing. There is nothing sinful about illusion, as long as it is clearly stated that it is illusion and not done by the power of demons. == In the world of performing magicians (tricksters, amateur and professional) there is a branch of magic for entertainment that is specifically geared to teaching moral lessons of Christianity. That kind of magic is sometimes performed for children by people of the cloth on the view that the illusions capture attention, and the object lessons are memorable.


Magic Tricks and Games for Kids!?

Magic has astounded mankind for centuries and people still love to see it today. It is a performing art that remains timeless. Magicians performed in the court of the Pharaohs of ancient Egypt, and on the streets of the Greek and Roman markets. During the Middle Ages, people treated it with suspicion. The practice of innocent street magic could even lead to accusations of practicing witchcraft!While people no longer perform in royal courts, markets, and fairs, magic is alive and well in modern times. From Harry Houdini's amazing escapes to modern illusionist Criss Angel, magic continues to excite our curiosity. There are many tricks the young magician can perform to amaze their friends and family. Some of the simplest ones to try include card tricks, optical illusions, levitation, and coin magic.Card tricks are quite easy for the beginning magician to learn. Magic with cards has been around as long as cards have existed. Nowadays, almost every household has a deck of cards, which makes this type of magic very accessible. Most card tricks simply require the ability to count and keep track of the cards. Some of these tricks also require misdirection, which means distracting your audience from what you are really doing. It is a good idea to practice your tricks ahead of time, so you can perform them without a hitch.Another fun type of magic to try are optical illusions. These are very simple ways to deceive the mind and fool the senses. Whether magicians performed the classic trick of sawing a woman in half, or making a pencil appear to be made of rubber, audiences were fooled by what they thought they saw. Some of the most popular visual or optical illusions are those in which an object appears to pass through something solid, or something seems to disappear. Performing these tricks is surprisingly simple, once you learn how to do them.If you are interested in a challenge, you might want to try levitating objects. Over hundreds of years, people have taught the art of levitation as part of spiritual practices. They teach that levitation occurs with mastery of the life force and energy, however levitation has less religious associations today. It is mostly known as entertaining, crowd-pleasing street magic. Levitation might appear difficult, but it is easier to master the techniques than you might think. Levitation tricks take practice to ensure that they are performed smoothly and subtlety.Coin tricks, like card tricks, involve a fair amount of misdirection, and sometimes gimmicks, such as pre-cut coins. In the 1800's, there are references to magicians using folding coins for tricks like placing a coin in a narrow-necked bottle. The first documented coin conjuring is found in Reginald Scot's Discoverie of Witchcraft. Because of their size and become most people carry coins on them at all times, they make an excellent prop for magic tricks. These sleight-of-hands tricks are also very easy to learn.If you would like to perform magic tricks to entertain family or friends, remember to practice before trying a trick. With repeated practice, your technique will improve, and tricks will look more believable. Showmanship will help with misdirection. Keeping your audience entertained by your act - not just the magic tricks - will keep them from wondering how you perform the tricks. It is important to keep talking to distract the audience. Things will not always go perfectly, though, so it is also important to prepare some humorous responses to mistakes.Learning magic tricks is fun and worthwhile if you enjoy entertaining people. There are many videos on the Internet, as well as websites dedicated to magic, which can help you learn tricks. Also, try your school or local public library for books on the subject.
