Why does the Bible condemn sorcery and witchcraft in such stark terms when no such thing as magic exists or is even real, people can't levitate or cast spells on anyone, so why does the Bible forbid something that is purely imagination?
It would be like having verses in the Bible vehemently forbidding LARPING, I mean is witchcraft and LARPING lame... yea, but who cares?

You can blame King James. Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. ...was originally... Thou shalt not suffer a POISONER (i.e. ASSASSIN...not witch.) to live. He had it changed.
Jason Stewart
Why did he change it?

>magic Look up the word, and it's associated with Zoroastrian priests. So forbidding sorcery and witchcraft is like forbidding the practice of the old religion. Targeting women in particular, is a rather curious feature, which for me goes to show that men are supposed to be in charge. The rabus of old times knew how to make fire! And they could read a book to come up with more weird stuff to teach. Absolute magic.
i love the bible but i hate it at the same time cause its so corrupt. this is true for all the other books too. no, koran is not the word of God
Jackson Gomez
It’s the whole ritual human sacrifice part.
Brandon Hill
Magic what we consider now is probably not the magic that the Bible considered then If I had to make a guess, magic is the product of ritual or sacrifice (or both) to a different deity for the sake of power, the act itself is then magic
Colton Smith
He changes various passages to suit various purposes, but mostly to oppress women, enable himself to get divorced, etc. and as a result fucked over millions even after his death.
Read The King James Bible and compare it to the New International Version.
Asher Thompson
You are wrong...very wrong op magic is real, I had to kill my fair share of witches.
Colton Long
Magic is real, makes sense an american is too stupid to understand what REAL MAGIC is.
Because it is anything that challenges the authority of the religious elite in control. Think of how the non christian religions were treated during the middle ages. They were either outcast or executed.
Jaxson Stewart
Jews openly practice blood magikk.
Isaiah White
To turn to witchcraft or sorcery is to turn away from God. It is turning one's back to God that is the wrong, not whether you can do anything with it or not.
Austin Rodriguez
None of it's real. Netflix vs. Hulu vs. Disney+ is what you're seeing.
James Robinson
You know what one of the main things "witches" did back in day? They were the women who knew which herbs would cause a woman to abort their pregnancy. Abortion is murder, and wholly condemned.
Logan Allen
That is true, look up King Solomon of all people, the damned Hexagram is associated with his binding of creatures to jars.
Isaiah Stewart
Magic was forbidden in the bible exactly because it is fake. Thats why false gods, falsew teachings and lying were all condemned. If you think things aren't dangerous and shouldn't be condemned if they are fake, then you should be totally fine with radical feminism and trannies.
Charles Stewart
If you've ever seen a Korean girl take off her makeup you would know magic and sorcery is real and its fucking evil.
Because all people who practice witchcraft are absolute faggots, they fundamentally try to achieve the same thing God intended by perverting the natural into the unnatural. They try to break the rules to become Gods through chaos and destruction in a transformation and rebirth because they see the material world as being the only thing there is to life and all the spiritual rules God had put forth as a repugnant cage that shackles them. To become a Tranny for the sake of magic rituals, for example, is the union of the two sexes but instead of the gift of life it is merely a perversion masquerading as the real thing.
So yeah, Witches be degenerate SJW progressives because big daddy G frowns on the degeneracy they wish to commit freely.
We killed some satanist pedophiles here in Massachusetts once. Was a great time. All the history books lie about it though.
Caleb Hernandez
Sorcery, witchcraft, and conjuring are apparently required to run a society. The Hebraic religions take control of these forces at the priest level, and never allow the common man to work naturally with these powerful forces.
Mason Thompson
God I wish I had proper excuse to imprison occult larping big tiddy goth girls for "interrogation".
Caleb Watson
The seal of Solomon was a signet ring given to him by Lucifer, to conjure and control demons. He used this to build his temple. Jews are quite literally the Synagogue of Satan.
2 Corinthians 4:4
>Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe. They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News. They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God.
The Old Testament is quite clear in describing Satan as God of Earth.
Daniel Hughes
The KJV codifies a revision of the bible. The clause about not letting a sorceress live, replaced the one about offering a dowry to marry an otherwise unwilling woman. Supposing herbalism was what deemed them dangerous, witch hunts in modern terms amounts to somewhat of a drug war.
Jacob Long
because there were literally people whose profession was talking to dead people in the olden days and Jesus wanted us to round them up along with faggots like OP and kill them
Noah James

>turn away from God Not if your god is King Paimon. How ARROGANT you Christians are, believing your god to be the only one that matters.
David Bailey
because they knew magic is real. moses staff turns into snake
Ding ding ding! That thing you do.. We don't like it. So we'll classify it with bad stuff. And since we control EVERYTHING, you don't get a voice.
Josiah Hall
>no such thing as magic exists or is even real Wrong.
Julian Cooper
> when no such thing as magic exists or is even real It's condemning necromancy mainly. It's the only kind of magic that really exists. Anything else is larping fun. Yes there are ways to raise the dead within binding circles and have them pass along information, insight, or even knowledge on further magical acts. Demons can be raised this way. Anything from the abyss. The catholic church knows this and has used it some. Or a lot depending on who you ask.
This. The word magic come from the Babylonian magus, which was a priest caste. And yes they practiced human sacrifice.
Jack Jenkins
because some biblical shit is magic and it simply works. some other magic exists, but abrahamic God (demiurge really) doesnt want people to use that other magic. same shit in islam. only abrahamic rituals (aka magic) is allowed, because demiurge is a bitch like that.
Eli Cook
Believe of European Christianity in witchcraft was fairly weak until the Muslim conquest of Spain. This is where we likely see gaps filled in with a concept of witchcraft that we eventually find in the Malleus maleficarum.
A which is a women or man (female particle in German but unisex in meaning) that fucked a daemon/devil to gain the ability to work magic. (Muslim believe in witchcraft is based on a contract with Djinn) As the word "devils" was used in the Malleus maleficarum this was later interpreted by the uneducated masses to mean the one male devil, and him not being a fag, making witches female, while Henryk Instytor actually mentioned incubi and succubi in the book (the succubus you know from /h /e /d ), allowing for male and female witches.
When it comes to pop culture, it has very little to do with the banned witchcraft. e.g. of the characters in the image only one fits the definition of witch by Henryk Instytor. ... the one gaining power by fucking a daemon in the once popular TV series.
>people can't levitate or cast spells on anyone, People can't fly or cast fireballs but they can predict the future, heal people (like Rasputin).
Gabriel Lewis
That's somewhat a different thing entirely except Voodoo is a form of necromancy and it's a " valid " magical art. Not something I'd recommend in any form however. I recommend choosing the congregate with the ultimate power, but for that, you must kneel ask forgiveness.
Andrew Lopez
Cathar (Albigensian) Crusade was based.
Jackson Gomez
Employing a demon isn’t a fair trade and never will be. You have given your soul to the great deceiver, and though you are embedded with whatever strength you wanted you have given up yourself
William Lewis
Of course you believe no magic exists- you've been taught by the Jew what magic "is."
Lucas Murphy
Nope ya dumb leaf.
Lincoln Sanchez
jesus flew into the sky and arguably threw fireballs at sodom and Gomorrah from the sky
why couldnt you conjure a demon and use its power to do something similar
if you dont believe in magic you dont believe in the bible frankly
theres a small form of magic still if you talk to a psychic on the street tarrot card readings some are better than others
There was a single period of witch hysteria over here, but other than that, Nordic Christians have largely ignored "witchcraft". Easter Witches are actually still a Nordic tradition, and while I don't know how it exactly works in other Nordic countries, over here kids dress up in witchy outfits and go around door to door exchanging decorated willow branches for candies every Palm Sunday.
Parker Cook
>you must kneel ask forgiveness Ingesting a drug cocktail from a disgruntled woman seems like a rather risky proposal. Best make sure she intends to keep you alive.
Charles Ward
He didn't cast fireballs at Sodom and Gomorrah because he didn't have enough mana potions.
Henry Ross
>so why does the Bible forbid something that is purely imagination? If the bible says that magic is real and you have disagree the problem is with you and not the bible. But don't take my word for it. I actually worship the devil.
I have killed my fair share of self proclaimed “gods among men” the lord has aided me with their destruction, the kikes are the most sinful lout destroyers blood sacrifice and usury is their strength, they will always be kings of this material world. Pity them they will not see the eternal light
Caleb Williams
Here u have the magicians in egypt turning the rivers into blood and doing whatever they want
this is a book of moses you dont even believe in the foundation of the bible if you think theres no such thing as magic. you are entirely atheist and naturalist
period.
jesus could not exist without magic because he is based on the moses teachings
Exodus 7:22 The fish that were in the river died, the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink the water of the river. So there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.And the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments: and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, neither did he hearken unto them; as the LORD had said.
That's a red algae bloom you schmuck. That's a natural phenomona.

They are sinners, it is my duty to purge them, and the Jew as well.
Matthew Sanders
>Why does the Bible condemn sorcery and witchcraft in such stark terms when no such thing as magic exists or is even real Let let's remember some things the bible praises and of course exists and is real: >Invisible man from the sky >Virgin getting pregnant >JC reviving after 3 days >That flooding shit with all the animals of the earth inside a boat without eating out each other >The guy that survived 3 days in a whale's belly >Talking snake >Water turning to wine >Blind man regain vision >Man made out of dirt >Woman made out of dirt man's rib These are only some examples of bullshit and fantasy we find on the bible, no surprise witchcraft and sorcery are another one of those
Christian Stewart
>people cant cast spells Lmao dude. Of course you can. Words are magic and you SPELL them. Magic is more than you think it is. You've been brainwashed against realizing it.

>Why would a book about fairy tales being real have fairy tales and fantasy in it while pretending it's real
Gee, I dunno user, maybe because the Bible is a fucking fairy tale book and only complete retards would believe anything in it?
Jordan Young
All of which are true, you vile putrid cultist.
Blake Bailey
read the whole book of exodus dumb head
those magicians could do whatever they wanted basically and werent even powered by god
the reason god forbids magic is because it is real and theyre basically breaking the fabric of the dimensions by calling on spirit beings to look at your future or talk to dead people
thats why its a sin youre meant to stay here on earth
its like if you did LSD
thats the modern form of magic because people are too dumb to do real magic in 2020
Like does the world ever do anything cool? No. But there is synchronization
So a curse isn't booga booga you die tomorrow
A curse is booga booga, your dog gets ran over and you're very depressed, and when you need her the most your cunt girlfriend leaves you because women aren't good for shit, and you contemplate suicide because you're insecure and refuse to hate the bitch who left you after your dog died, or get a new dog or something
Daniel Myers
Yep, I saw a translation of this once, where there was a law detailing how to get out of being spellbound. Surprisingly, it resembled baptism. A trial by water. In Danish, a wizard is known as a 'troldmand', the first part being 'trold', for troll, or thrall, which means slave. The second part being man, obviously. The English word 'enthrall' fits this etymology.
You could likely call it a marriage/making a contract. The words used to describe the Daemons/Devils: Incubi/Incubus = the ones on top (male) Succubi/Succubus = the ones on the bottom (female)
... there's also likely a component of "riding a broomstick", rubbing what's on it in to your mucous membrane to get high without getting a deadly amount of poison into your system. Creating evidence of activity that could be easily misinterpreted even if there was no literally daemonic contact ...
