ghosts

Pretty obvious which one of those dudes is the ghost! Holy crap padre, get some vitamin D!

So, I rotate somewhere along the continuum of 'this is Alex Jones crazy' and 'this is part of my Christian faith' on this.

When he gets to ouiji board stuff, I struggle to take it real seriously, though I do strongly believe that demons are real. Seance coordinators, 'serious' palm readings?

Anyway, I wish it were more credible to me, frankly.

The knocks against the ouiji board is that its made by a board game company. So it comes off as christians taking a spooky board game too seriously.

But its not the fact its mass produced cardboard that matters.

Its the fact you're trying to commune with demons and unclean spirits. Its the act, not the device that matters. Same with tarot cards or anything else of the sort.

Roland Doe wouldn't endorse using a Ouija board. This is the boy who the Exorcist movie was based upon, his aunt taught him to use a Ouija before dying and he used it to contact her with infamous results.

Ouija boards, as antibiblical as tattoos

I dunno if other companies/people make ouiji boards, but any discussion that takes them seriously...well, I just check out. Same thing I do when someone cites Joel Osteen.

ouija boards do summon demons, whether you believe it or not...I had one as a kid, and it literally scared the hell out of me...

Agree. It's your mind and actions that are giving Satan the foothold. Can he use that ouija board and tarot card? Absolutely. However, it is you turning to the darkness that is the real culprit and threat here.

I'm Catholic and in general, I don't mess around with anything occult. I do believe in ghosts because I've lived in a haunted house before (I don't recommend it) and have had other encounters with supernatural entities. I think this video gives me a better perspective on some of the encounters I've had.

Here's my anecdotal story on ouija boards - one time I had to drop a friend off somewhere and unbeknownst to me he had a ouija board in his bag. My car was brand new and I had never had any issues with it. As soon as he put his bag in the car it died. My car died six times on the way to drop him off. Eventually he made an off-hand joke about it being his ouija board. I told him to get it out of my car. As soon as it was out of my car the car started right up and I never had any problems with it after that point.

I wonder if Kyle Field has many ghosts seeking to make reparations for losing big football games. Midnight Yell is essentially the 12th man praying for these souls.
