Necromancy is real. However people are not speaking with dead relatives, but rather Demonic entities masquerading as dead relatives. The Bible calls them “familiar spirits”. The Bible forbids this...

Leviticus 19:21 Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.

Have any of you visited Lily Dale in upstate New York?

I live about 20 minutes from there -- it's a beautiful place.

I worked at the Lily Dale Post Office for a while back a few years ago. The people are very nice and quite interesting.

Had a reading there once; the guy got a lot right. It was a very interesting experience.

Do I believe in it? I'm not sure to tell you the truth. But after having worked around these people, I'm convinced that they believe in what they're doing.

Have you read Frank Perreti “This Present Darkness”? Good stuff!

[moovova]

Thank you...I think. ;-)

Shock - people report dead people voting as well

I’ve read several of his books! Love them. I just love the premise of his storylines, where it’s the angels, good and bad, who are the focus. Really good and makes you think.

Not unusual Biden voters always hearing the dead Hitler Marx Lennon ....................................

I’ve read several too but they scared the bejeebers out of me because it highlighted what we’re fighting and who the forces are. It was an awakening but I am glad that I read them.

I live near there too, never went there. These people are professional, they have a lot of tricks up their sleeves. That is why magicians like Randi and Houdini worked to expose them. They could duplicate practically all the affects without claiming one paranormal power. I am of the opinion that they are frauds and scam artists. They rarely subject themselves to scientifically controlled conditions.

[Abathar]

I scoff at these people and those who believe in them.

Water witchers on the other hand, are quite real.

Found this about Mary Todd Lincoln and spiritualism.

“I’ll take mediums any day over shrinks. “

I wouldn’t.

They were at the polls but have now gone home......

I think GotQuestions.com is an excellent Christian site.

[faucetman]

“MOST” of these people are frauds. Most of the rest of them are just crazy.

BUT,....BUT NOT ALL OF THEM!

Was Moses a fraud? Others?

Have you ever heard God’s small voice? I HAVE! Is the Holy “SPIRIT” real? Angels, demons?

SPIRITS EXIST! It is undeniable! We have to decide for ourselves what is real and what is not.

Do not dismiss ALL spirits just because the VAST MAJORITY of them are FAKE!

[Roman_War_Criminal]

Amen!

Deuteronomy 18:9-12
Leviticus 19:31
Leviticus 20:27

[Pontiac]

When rated on scales of absorption, as well as how strongly they believe in the paranormal, spiritualists scored much more highly than members of the general population.

Well, Duh?!!!!

If you’re hearing, seeing or sensing dead people, I think you would be more likely to believe in the paranormal.

If you are a spiritualist don’t you by definition believe in the paranormal?

Necromancer, Lord Marshal Zhylaw, before he was promoted to Full Death.

[Cloverfarm]

Yes, he did do an expose. He wrote a best seller about it, telling how each famous case could easily be faked. IIRC it was called “A Magician Among the Spirits.” (He’s also a hero of mine ...)
