    But there’s Q, the traveller, Wesley, that old guy who wiped out an entire species with a thought… Pretty magical stuff there…

      Any sufficiently advanced technology would appear as magic to the primitive. This is a theme repeated frequently in the show. 

      The life forms you mentioned are simply more advanced than humanity can comprehend, they are not magical.

        The Q are pretty fucking magical, to be honest. DeLancie’s Q even suggests that all of their powers come from the mind, not from technology.

      Wow, I had completely forgotten about the Wesley Traveler thing.

        Well then, I’d say this is a good excuse to familiarize yourself with it and tell me for sure.
