I like to think of electromagnetism as a form of magic (in the supernatural/religious sense). In the days before radio, the idea of moving energy and information over pieces of metal or thin air would be considered sorcery or witchcraft. Today its so much more advanced with pocket computers literally putting the world at our fingertips. I can casually talk to people on the other side of the planet in near real time.
