To: metmom; Cronos
Do read the Bible, bt, it is not good to distort it. Leviticug talks of mediums and conversing with the dead. Through God's grace if one asks others, whether on this world or alive in Christ in the next, to pray for us is not the same.


If talking to someone is *praying* to them, as Catholics constantly tell us it is in a bid to justify asking each other to pray for each other, then talking to a dead saint or Mary is *conversing* with them, even if they don't answer back, because at the very least, *conversing* is a legitimate synonym for *talking*.

The all knowing, all wise Cronos doesn't seem to know that the warning in Leviticus is not referencing to talking to dead bodies in or out of the ground...It is referencing talking to spirits of dead people...Period...

ALL dead people have live spirits...Do not attempt to talk to any of them...Why??? Because you probably can't tell the difference between them...

And you certainly don't know if any of those you talk to are Christians, regardless of what you thought of them while they were alive...

AND, I thought all those dead Catholics were burning in purgatory??? How could they communicate with Jesus???

There is no legitimate, sanctioned method of contacting the spirits or souls of those who have passed on given to us, therefore any effort to do so can only leave someone open to deception from the spiritual realm.

2 Corinthians 11:13-15 13 For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14 And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. 15 So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.

While Satan has no power over believers since greater is He who is in us, than he who is in the world, those who are not believers in Christ have no such protection and are susceptible to any kind of deception or attack.
