Hi Candy.

I've read the Bible. I can think of many scriptures that are adamantly against the eating of pork.

First let me say that I agree with everyone here, and I have great love for seekers and mystics everywhere (I say this with some fore-knowledge of coming events).

I myself am a mystic, and let me just say in all of our defense: It's hard to not talk to someone just because they have a mysterious form... in fact it's nearly irresistible.

However, as I am quite (un)popular for being the one dissenting voice; it appears that consulting the dead is against the scriptures:

"Deuteronomy 18:10-13
Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD, and because of these detestable practices the LORD your God will drive out those nations before you. You must be blameless before the LORD your God."

Take this as you will. This is where your friends are coming from. Most people are completely unaware of all that goes on around them. If they had even a glimpse, things would be much different.
