The concept of a sleight of hand magic chest revolves around the idea of a specially designed box that allows magicians to perform impressive tricks and illusions. This type of chest is built with hidden compartments, secret mechanisms, and cleverly disguised openings that enable the magician to manipulate objects and create the illusion of magic. The main purpose of a sleight of hand magic chest is to house the various tools, props, and accessories that a magician needs to perform their tricks. These can include decks of cards, coins, ropes, scarves, and other small objects that are commonly used in magic performances. The chest is designed to not only hold these items securely but also provide easy access to them during a performance. One of the key features of a sleight of hand magic chest is its ability to allow the magician to secretly manipulate objects.
One of the key features of a sleight of hand magic chest is its ability to allow the magician to secretly manipulate objects. This is achieved through cleverly placed hidden compartments and secret openings that are carefully designed to be indistinguishable from the rest of the chest. These compartments and openings can be used to make objects appear or disappear, change their form or location, or even transform from one object to another.
The Art of Divine Enchantment
Dear Reader, As I mentioned in last Friday’s newsletter, after 60 straight weeks of writing Second Drafts , I took a break this week to focus on playing the role of Grandfather in Orpheus Ascending this weekend. In my absence, I asked friend and fellow pilgrim, Jake Aharonian, to write a guest feature, and he knocked it out of the park (as I knew he would) . I hope you enjoy it. In response to last week’s feature on Christianity Today self-reporting on sexual harassment (and the problem with sexual harassment in general), I received this email from a reader:
“I’m going to offer my guess as to why this problem of sexual sin within our Christian institutions is occurring so often. I feel much of the blame falls on broad acceptance of artificial birth control both from churches and from parishioners. What seemed like such an amazing idea to free women from their natural God-given fertility so they could be more free to work or enjoy the physical act of marriage without the consequence of a child. This certainly applies to men also. With the removal of the consequence of children for men, they quit looking at their wives as something to be treasured and turned them into an object that could now be ‘open for business’ any day of the month. This could also apply to premarital relationships where respecting the girl you were courting and looking forward to marrying and being intimate with could now simply be viewed as on opportunity to ‘getting the milk for free without buying the cow.’ Factor in the secular world embracing this even more than Christians and we have the place we are at now. For time’s sake, I will spare you the diatribe about the prevalence of abortion, even amongst Christians, that yielded similar results as the Pill. When Christians submitted to these secular ills, we gained perceived power, then corruption, etc.”
I don’t disagree with the significance the reader attributes to birth control; fifty years after the fact, most of us can’t imagine the cultural shift that must have been then and even since . While the milk/cow analogy is familiar and perhaps not as nuanced as some may like, it gets at the mentality of getting something with no moral obligation to or for it, which as I suggested in last week’s newsletter is at the heart of harassment. The issue is not (just) sex, but power . I always enjoy hearing from my readers. As always, thanks for reading and writing to tell me so. Enjoy this week’s Second Drafts ( and thanks again, Jake, for giving me a break ). Craig P.S.: As a reminder, you’re welcome and encouraged to email me directly with feedback, ideas, links, etc. at cmdunham [at] gmail [dot] com . Just know that, unless you specifically tell me not to, I may quote you here (though it will always be anonymously).
