A True Interpretation of the Witch of Endor

The author presents a theological and exegetical argument that the manifestations attributed to witches and familiar spirits arise from human imagination — the seed of Reason — rather than disembodied entities, and contends that spirits cannot exist or walk apart from their bodies. He reads a famous biblical episode about a woman who appears to summon a deceased prophet as evidence to refute popular claims of spirits operating independently, explains how imagination produces visions and voices, contrasts the seed of Reason with the seed of Faith which yields true revelation, and offers interpretations of related scriptural passages to satisfy skeptics and persuade readers.
