Science and magic equate. It's when you throw "reason" into science that they start to pull away. They are both cause and effect understandings of the world of phenomena, but when you equate (western) reason with science, you get messy. Every culture has reasonm it just works different ways in different cultures. It's not people are doing things that make no sense, people want things to make sense to them to agree with it. Western reason has all these rules and regulations that are really only used to rationalize one's actions. People don't reason, people rationalize.

Either way, science and magic do the same thing in practically the same way.
