  The following biblical references
to twelve magical practices are
presented for the reader to review.
  No attempt has been made to judge
their validity. The King James
version of The Holy Bible was used
for the scripture passages and
Webster's Dictionary was used for
the definitions given. In all cases
the "paranormal" criteria means the
following practices were practiced
without the aid/intervention of The
Holy Spirit, ie. through the aid of
other spirits or by man alone.
