Yeah, what you said. I just didn’t word it very well. Most of this is just speculation I’m yammering on about. I don’t know of any studies.
I’m trying to get an idea how wide spread believing in psychics and mediums is in the christian community. I’m wondering if going to psychics or mediums extends to all education levels. I’d be interested to know if the run of the mill clergy is known to preach against it. I think I first learned about the prohibitions against necromancy was when the televangelist Benny Hinn was criticized for saying he did such things.
A christian forum might have some of these answers. Considering I live in something of a bible belt I was kind of surprised that so many jumped on the idea of attending a chat with the dead and seem ardent believers. I guess it makes sense that they believe in the magical, but I thought they’d at least be more cautious where this magic comes from with all the talk of demons and being tricked by the devil.
