Imperious to Energy vs Magic attacks

I always played that magical energy bypassed imperious Energy. I don't know why wondered how others play it or is any bases for this rule.

Not the way we have ever taken it - and the spell appears in Palladium Fantasy (only magical energy).

Energy is energy.
Impervious to energy is impervious to energy.

The only time it matters whether the energy is magic, is if the magic spell/attack being specifically used states that it bypasses Impervious To Energy.

We have always played the source of the energy magical or technological does not matter. However we play force bolts penetrate as well as Mind Bolts. We also play ion beams do half damage because part of their damage is kinetic impact damage like bullets.
