I understand Darrell (Dardedar) is also knowledgeable in
magic, so between the two of us we should be able to shoot
down almost any of Parson Pat's "miracles".

I think Helen was saying that Pat was saying such things
could be done (fire from thought) not that he was necessarily
doing it himself. Why would Pat want to undermine the blind
faith method which works so well for the unthinking xian?
Providing evidence might fail and would only interfere with the
tried and true:

faith n.
1. unquestioning belief that does not require proof or evidence
--Webster's

I do a little magic for friends. I did enjoy the time I spooked
my Jehovah Witness mother and made her say "It's demons! It's
demons! Don't do it in my house any more." This was even after
I demonstrated how I did it. Geez....

cheers,

Darrel
