. . . and other truths we learn from literature
My family was playing "Would You Rather" and got a card asking whether we'd rather have three questions answered or be able to resurrect someone. The kids and I went for the three questions, but Ron was hesitating over resurrection. "Oh come on," I said, "necromancy never pays; literature shows us this over and over."
"Oh yeah," Ron said, "The Monkey's Paw."
And then we went on to the next card. Some things are just clear, once you remember all the stuff you've read about them.

I love it! Can you incorporate it into your header or sidebar? :P
That. Is. AWESOME.
Trying to figure out how hypnotism is a form of necromancy...
Alison, maybe this church believes you can be mesmerized into thinking someone has risen from the dead?
Dare you to go!
Jodie, I'd drop in, but I'm in Ohio and the church is in the San Francisco area, about 2,000 miles away (a four day's drive)!
lol!
Take that, necromancy! You've officially been churched!
