Programming=Magic?

Hello everyone, today I was reading SICP, and the similarity between magic and computer science struck me. Just as a magician can weld great power by speaking the language the of gods to bring down fire and lightning, we programmers can herd thousands and millions like slaves with the right lines of codes. Such power to be weld solely through intellect exist nowhere else.  With the right lines of codes, we can cripple nations and conquer the world. Such magnificent power, I must read more SICP.

As the world slowly digitized, computer science is perhaps the closest incarnation to magic. We can wreak chaos and havoc through intellect alone. Think what a virus that flash a BIOS firmware can do. Yes, we computer programmer are shepherd of the new age. We can speak the language of the thinking machines, we alone possess the sole dominion these creatures of infinite power, like dragons.
