What has necromancy to do with dark arts?

Necromancy being dark art is what Christians said not pagans.

And btw what is this with pagan shit?

Celts didnt invent paganism the first recordings comes from Ancient Sumeria.

and the oldest paganism that exist today is West African Vodun and they talk to the dead all the time and do not view it as dark art.

This black vs light magic is pure BS.

Its not type of magic thats black or white but how do you use it.

@1DarkMasK1 Your way of thinking is coming across as one dimensional. Dark can mean many things beyond the whole bullshit notion of evil; the unknown, the underworld, night, and death itself can all be attributed with "darkness", and there is no mention of evil in those things. The thought of evil being innate with necromancy is purely subjective and is not something I subscribed to or even mentioned in this video.

CONT...

CONT...As far as my stating that the Celts "invented" Paganism, where did I say that? Or bring up the whole black vs. white magic bullshit? If you noticed below, I have already dealt with Wiccan-types {and so did a few others who did a better job with their astute and patient responses} that the lot of us who practice magic are either "good" or "bad" witches. In short, I don't buy into them road apples.

@CelticKnight369 ...Anyway, just my own two cents. I'm proud to be a Witch of "grey magic" if that's what you'd like to call it. I protect my own and get shit done. :)

[greysquare7]

@CelticKnight369 ...practices in which you may or may not consider "dark arts". I am a well-rounded Witch. I will curse as I see fit, just as I will help as I see fit. Personal ethics comes into play, of course, and while you may see any practitioner of the dark arts as "evil" or immoral or some such thing, I have to say I strongly disagree. If you had a criminal attempting to break in to your house and you owned a gun, would you not use it? Your complacency would be your own downfall. Cont....

@nefaeria Not to jump into anything here, but I just wanted to say to you, CelticKnight: It seems that a few years ago when Wicca was on the rise, the common misconception among others was that Wiccans worshipped Satan. Of course, we know that's balogna. However, it seems Wiccans are now perpetrating their own kind of misconception: that all Pagans/Witches believe in the Threefold Law, karmic return, etc. I'm here to tell you that I certainly do not, and I relish and enjoy the many... cont...
