Forbidden in Scripture.
Familiar spirits are a no-no.
And "thou shan't suffer a witch to live" garners some respect, although then as now, Christians don't realize a 'witch' is actually ANY woman practicing any religion (or none, of course) other than The One True Faith.
And as for not tolerating the paranormal stuff, they don't get their undies in much of a wad over horoscopes, and Nancy Reagan certainly got a 'pass' for consorting with an actual witch, and those giving her a pass were all big name Fundamentalist and Evangelical leaders. Go figure.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
