Energy is indeed energy, but the way the energy handled is very much
different.
For example 120/220 Volt A/C directly earthed with a wire causes no
harm.
That same energy that flows through your body and meets you body's
resistance, in order to reach earth will destroy your body.
Same energy but with quite a different result...

So, you're saying that electricity flowing through
your body could create a black hole just because the
energy is being "handled" differently?

That argument makes about as much sense physics-wise as
saying cosmic rays can't create dangerous black holes
but the LHC can because the energy is handled differently;
It's tantamount to believing in magic.

Argh, the stupid. It burns.

This is not what I'm saying and you know it.
Don't try to be funny by using twisted logic.
Being hit by a 4 square feet piece aliminium will not likely create a
'red hole' in your body.
However, this same energy concentrated in a small bullet will most
certainly create a 'red hole' in your body.

No, I think it mirrors your thinking exactly.

But mysticism and magic is okay?

Yes, so? Same thing for LHC and cosmic rays. Cosmic
ray bullets can have far greater energies than LHS
ones, and are made of the same "stuff". Your argument
fails on trivial scientific grounds.
