The Magician : A Metaphor For Understanding The Humanism Concept

The Magician's Code

"A Magician Never Shares Their Secret."
well...
perhaps they should.

Hoarding Power

"Magic Is Only Magic Until You Know The Trick."

In other words, people can only hold power over others until they know the secret to the power being used to oppress them.

Magicians need lessons in the responsible use of power.

Improving Humanity

For what reason do you do magic?
How do you use the power which has been given to you?
And what effect does the use of your power have for humanity?
