That's a lot of words to say "any sufficiently advanced technology appears as magic to the less knowledgeable". You want to believe in these things because they give you reason to fear those you despise. The reality is they are not capable of such things and have convinced you, through stories and accounts such as this, that they have these capabilities and more. If they truly had such capabilities, why would they fear us having primitive guns so much? Use your head. They would have already crushed us if they could do half the things you give them credit for. We're still here and they still fear our guns. They are not gods.
