Is Christianity based upon necromancy?

Question

and isn't necromancy condemned in the bible? Also, isn't communion based on cannibalism? And, isn't the Crucifixion based on human-sacrifice and or deocide?
That's 4 questions for the price of one for those who have difficulty counting.

Answer 1

No. Yes. No. Sort of.

Christianity is not based on using unknown, dark spiritual powers aside from God to play with dead people. Necromancy is condemned in the Bible. The Crucifixion is based on the God-man Christ Jesus dying as a sacrifice to pay for our sins. Communion cannot be based on cannibalism, since then the church could hardly be expected to perform it (which we are). After all, there is only so much of one's body to go around, right? And the disciples themselves didn't do it, so it could not have been cannibalism.

Answer 2

If the Bible condemns necromancy, why would you say Christianity is based upon it? Sorry dude, but that's kind of a no-brainer. Maybe offer some evidence next time.

As for communion, the bread and wine are understood to be symbolic of the flesh and blood of Christ. (Except for Catholics, but even then it is taken as a symbolic act of devotion to Christ and acceptance of him and his will, not as nourishment. A Catholic would be better able to explain their point of view...)

Crucifixion was an ancient method of capital punishment, regularly practiced for hundreds of years before the time of Christ. It was not human sacrifice--it was an execution, a punishment, usually of criminals or prisoners of war. As for being deicide, that would have required men killing God. Yet Christ gave himself up to fulfill his purpose, and even after that, he didn't stay dead.

Answer 3

and ignorance counts against every question you asked.

1. Jesus isn't dead.
2. Since Jesus isn't dead, the second question becomes irrelevent.
3. Communion takes on another meaning in this area. Look it in the greek.
4. Since the cross is foolish to you, we can ignore the answer.

Answer 4

Christianity is based on following Christ, and he was NO necromancer. True Christians follow Jesus' footsteps and obey his commandments, that's what being a "Christian" involves. I don't practice communion and I don't believe in trans-substantiation. Jesus is not God, so it's not deocide. And yes, he did sacrifice himself to cover what Adam lost for all of us, perfect life. That's the whole point, it's a ransom "sacrifice" to buy back those who put faith in it from sin and eventual death.

Answer 5

christianity IS based partly on necromancy..however the people who created the religion were literally high off shrooms..

Here's my theory, they were so high, they saw lightning burn something, and heard thunder, couldn't think of how it was created due to their primitivness, and acted like another thing made it, "god" is what they called it..

Many religions were created by mushrooms..witch is why psilocybe cubensis is called Teonancatyl "divine flesh" because it got them high in the aztec religion. It made them feel good, and forget all of their troubles.
