Science Cannot Comprehend Phlebotinum: Difference between revisions

A note on the most common usage of this: even if magic does not work via our universe's physical laws, in many works [[Magic a Is Magic A|it follows its own rules]] and therefore can be observed, experimented with and theorized about. It might require a new branch of science, but if it can be [[Sufficiently Analyzed Magic|observed and experimented with]], then science can comprehend it. Sometimes magic will be [[Smug Snake|a jerk]] and break patterns ''only'' when someone is actually looking for one, just to invoke this trope. If the scientists persist in offering "scientific" explanations that don't correctly explain the phlebotinum, then this idea has turned into the rather closely related idea that [[Science Is Wrong]]. This trope is NOT related to [[Evil Cannot Comprehend Good]]. AT all. No [[Unfortunate Implications]] and [[Fridge Horror]] for you!

* In the ''[[My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' episode "Feeling Pinkie Keen", [[Agent Scully|Twilight]] runs herself ragged trying to analyze/disprove Pinkie Pie's "Pinkie Sense". In the end, she gives up and admits that maybe the "Pinkie Sense" ''can't'' be analyzed (which turns out to be the "doozy" that Pinkie predicted would happen).
