Because we got religion instead— I'm just joking. I think maybe there was an incident where we lost our magic. If the writers are relying on a lot of old and familiar myths and tales to create the story, and magic at least exist in our world in fiction, then I believe the older stories in Greek mythology (Hecate is the goddess of magic) and even New Age mysticism might shed some light on our magicless state.
