@Fil Albuquerque,
You don't get the point. Try and understand what I say: THERE EXISTS NO OBJECTIVE LAW OF NATURE THAT WE CAN ALL AGREE UPON AND FOREVER.
Your idea that magic thinking neatly falls on one side and rational thinking falls on the other side, with a big obvious demarcating line between the two of them, is FALSE! That idea is PURE FANTASY.
The gravitational force as thought of by Newton was magic too, in a way, since it postulated an action at a distance. And yet it was accepted by science for a couple of centuries.
Therefore, there is no way we can exclude a particular candidate explanation just because it LOOKS "magic" to our intuition. The right criteria is: Can the theory predict / account for what happens, and can it do so better than any rival theory. String theory looks pretty "magical" to me, I mean totally counter-intuitive... So it must be false according to your very top-down, normative, corseted 19th century positivism.
