    3. I was at a party when the daughter brought out a Ouija board. She asked me to play with her. I had never been around one but whatever she asked the board to answer, it never would. She said it was because I didn't believe in it. She had played a lot and she said it always answered her questions. I would never allow my kids to have one in the house. I don't believe in them and I believe they lead to other more evil pursuits.

    3. Well, Kay & Emma..I really appreciate that fact that you knew how to spell quija. I think people tend to go over-board on things like this. Just like my s-i-l, once she got involved with this board, that's about she did with her time. She was so positive that everything that she learned on that board was the gospel. Come to think of it, someone in my dorm in college had a quiji board & sometimes when we had nothing to do, we would sit down & fool around with it. Like I said, we had nothing else to do...that's far from being addicted to it like Ginger was!! ~J ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, February 15, 2010 4:50 PM Subject: Re: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Wise woman.. >I have heard all kinds of bad things abt them.But don't have any personal >experiences with them. > Linda > Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T > > -----Original Message----- > From: Roses <[email protected]> > Date: Mon, 15 Feb 2010 16:30:31 > To: southern-chat<[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [SOUTHERN-CHAT] Wise woman.. > > > I was at a party when the daughter brought out a Ouija board.

    3. I have a booklet titled "What about the Ouija board?". It says one of the perils of the board is what might be termed progressive entrapment. Without going into a lot of detail, it says it is so clearly identified with the occult and the demonic, Scripture must be heeded. The Bible condemns all forms of occultism. The experiences of many involved also argue for complete avoidance of the board. I agree with their explanation. I didn't want anything to do with anything that could control my mind.
