Actually, Samuel said '…and tomorrow you and your sons will be with me’. If it really has two compartments, then they are separated. How can those two be together?

Also, you missed co comment the other arguments I presented.
Yes they are with each other because they were both in Hades.

The bible does not say it is a demon, in fact it says many times it was Samuel.

Not every statement found in the Bible is true, but all the Bible says it’s true.

For example, Mr. X says something like: lying is good. It is true that Mr. X said that, thus the Bible would say the truth (if the statement would be included in it): that Mr. X said that. But it doesn’t say that the statement is true, but that is is true that someone made that statement.

I will give you an example from Scriptures.
(Matthew 14:22-33 KJV) And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away. And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone. But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary. And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea. And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear. But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me. And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased. Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.
(Matthew 14:22-33 KJV)
The passage that is interesting to us is the following:
Mat 14:26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
Jesus said:
Mat 14:27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
Now, there is a statement there: “it is a spirit”. Jesus didn’t say He wasn’t a spirit, but said: “it is I”. Jesus said in Luke:
Luk 24:39 Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.
Jesus was not a spirit. He was flesh and bones. But the Bible is true in everything it says. It is true that the one’s in the boat said: “it is a spirit” but the statement is not true. So not every statement in the Bible is true, but it is true that they made that statement.
1Sa 28:14 And he said unto her, What form is he of? And she said, An old man cometh up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself.
It is true that Saul believed it was Samuel, but that doesn’t mean he was Samuel.

Now seriously, does anyone here actually believe witches have the power to call up the dead? Seriously. Does God grant them that power? Or are demons able to give this kind of power to their servants?
 
That would be a good argument but the Scriptures say:
And Samuel said, "And why do you ask me, when the Lord has turned away from you, and has become (the supporter of) your adversary?–1 Samuel 28:16
BTW, Exodus 7 has the magicians turning this staffs into snakes, the Moses turns Aarons into some bigger snakes or gators…The point is God can allow things to happen for evil use
