Hi, I just purchased a Ouija Board (the glow in the dark one) yesterday; i've never before used one in my life but researched and have some knowledge about it. Why are people not supposed to use them alone? And also, I have what i would call a 'sixth sense' anyways where i see and hear things most people can't (it runs in the family)...would that attract a lot of evil spirits? How do u know what to ask without accidentally inviting bad things? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated, thanks for your time!
if you can't prove something...u can't disprove it either
Science agrees that nothing is impossible, however certain things are highly improbable. It's the goal of science to prove things, not disprove them. If you can prove there is a paranormal activity involved in perception, then I will "believe" it. On the other hand, if you can't prove it, you should have the same integrity to admit that there is a possibility of it not being true.
I never said I don't believe there is a chance a Ouiji board could contact spirits. I merely argue that there is no proof, and thus is subject to being a red herring. I also doubt an arguement would hold up in court, if for example, a child purchased a board and was plagued by evil spirits.
Please heavenly father allow this blog to be a inspiration to you and allow the holy spirit to instruct this person in the proper way!
Nuff said sry! Had to do that!

“Everything which pertains to the human species, considered as a whole, belongs to the order of physical facts. The greater the number of individuals, the more does the influence of the individual will disappear, leaving predominance to a series of general facts dependent on causes by which society exists, and is preserved.” — Quetelet.
I thought this would be a relevant quote for the discussion.
So lets assume that God creates a spiritual world, aside from the laws of physics and science. What then are we afraid of? If it is not subject to the laws which govern our existence, then we would not be able to feel, or observe any of their outbursts. We are limited by the physical universe, and thus our spirituality is subject to scientific scrutiny.
If we assume that spirits are subject to the laws created by the universe, then we should, by scientific definition, be able to quantify their presence in some measurabe way. Hearing stories of someone who knows someone who heard of things being true are bordering urban legends, and are not quantifiable.
My point being, that if you believe something to be true, you will not evaluate it unbiased. It is true that science is based on approximations and theories like evolution, but gravity is a theory as well. Do you deny it's existance, even if it was defined as a supernatural force? We can't prove gravity, but we can guess what it is based on science. In the same sense, we can't prove spirituality, but we can definately give it the old college try.
I have seen first hand, objects on my desk and on my fireplace mantle, flying off ( not fallng from vibration) but flying 4 ft or more across the room. I have seen first hand, regular shadows of a persons shape cross the window on regular basis, ( would check at once and no one there)
There would be frequent smells of pipe smoke in a non smoking house, with all windows sealed. The inside motion detectors could not be used in the main area because something set them off.
And I have been present when a person with Rocky Mountain Spotted fever was being treated in the ER, elders of the church was praying and the spots just started to go away.
and I can go on with more. The idea that there is not a spirit world is not even a choice since I know it is real since I have been a personal witness to the activity. As have millions of others, it is just that science does not want to take this type of proof as valid.
Mention the words Ouija Board and most people will freak out because they associate those words with ghosts and spirits.
So how does a Ouija Board work? What makes the pointer move? Involuntary unconscious movement. What is purely physiological, however, appears to some to be paranormal. In other words, if you believe this stuff and are trying to get the spirits to answer questions, and you ask a question that you already know the answer to, the odds are that your own hands will do the rest by spelling out your answer.
Try this simple blindfold experiment. If it was spirits, they would be able to guide your hands no matter whether you can see or not. But if it is you doing it unconsciously, then the blindfold will prevent you from getting an answer to your question, because you can't see the board!
This experiment has been carried out and it has been proven that if you can't see the board the message will be nonsense.
It's your own fear, and that of the others around the table, that sends the pointer spinning out of control - due to unconscious confusion coming from some of the players. If you can't or won't accept this explanation, than stay clear of this ADULT GAME because it will only freak you out.
I can tell already no one will change their mind. How about we reach an agreement. This is just a proposal. This would be an answer to the original question.
It is unlikely that your ouija board will do anything harmful to you, granted that it is a toy modeland not necessarily authentic. Having a more authentic ouija board may change results.
