If a corpse is an object, how can a Cleric "touch a creature that has been dead for less than 200 years" to cast True Resurection? Also how can a Necromancer cast Raise Dead on a "Dead Creature"?

If the text of a spell says it can target a dead creature (aka a corpse), the spell can, in fact, target a corpse.

D&D is a game of exceptions, and if a rule makes the exceptional possible, the rule means it. #DnD https://t.co/PYxt8hTE6i
