Where in the Bible does it say that using a board game to 'talk to the dead' is a sin?

It comes on authority of QI...

Prayer is black magic?

My sister (whose been practicing far longer than i have) and I were going to cleanse my attic since it was bothering our family.
When we went up there to evaluate the problem, two shadows were apparent on one side of the attic.
I sheilded immediately (just incase), and we isolated them.
Thinking that was it, we called out any dark entities.
There were more than we thought.
On the other side of the room, one jumped out at me and knocked me backwards.
But with proper sheilding I wasn't harmed at all, and the problem is taken care of.


What?

You did it again, you thieving bastard.

Nate was pedantic about the spelling of this thread title, but didn't change it. Lazy bastard!

No, I was. And why should I? Like I said, it's more interesting than an actual Ouija board.

Sekto Springs 07-27-2010 01:47 PM

Nate, Max... you're all the same.

MeechMunchie 07-28-2010 11:40 AM

My only experience with a Ouiji board when like this:

"Are there any spirits present?"

"Hijdwnabc."

"Are there any literate spirits present?"

"Cbcdjre."

"Shit."

"Istv."

Wil 07-30-2010 02:06 AM

It was communicating in initialisms.

"Are there any spirits present?"

"Hi, I'm Jason Donovan. Which Neighbours actor’s best, chum?"

"Are there any literate spirits present?"

"Cruel bastard! Criticizing Donovan Jason’s righting ebilities?"

"Shit."

"I’m shit?" Thanks very…"

And with that he buggered off. You’re so rude.

Bullet Magnet 07-30-2010 03:23 PM

I am convinced. It's all real.

Same.

The only time I ever used one was by myself... and only the 'yes' and 'no' ever worked as far as receiving anything comprehensible but 'whomever' I was talking to was reluctant to give at least correct answers. The ultimate message I received through the experiences whittled down to "stop wasting your time with this, there's nothing worthwhile to be gained."

Nonsense. Figuring out that it was a waste of time was well worth the experience. :)

The trick is to blindfold everyone and re-orientate the board. Then have the one sighted individual not touching the block record what is "said". No intelligible responses will be received.

The alternative trick is to take control of the block yourself. The only change this makes to standard procedure is that you know you are doing it.

Pilot 08-01-2010 12:32 PM

I have only ever used a Ouija board by myself. The sensation of the 'block' moving was quite startling at first. It feels like there's some kind of 'charged' air around my fingertips as it moved. It's a feeling that's hard to describe.

I once tried automatic writing. The result was not writing so much as a few lines where my hand got tired and slipped on the page.
