er...it's well known how ouija boards work and it sure aint demons:

the Ideomotor effect: As the operator or operators relax, minute twitches in their muscles cause the almost frictionless planchette to move around the board. At that point, the suggestion sets in, and the operator's subconscious mind causes the planchette to move to an appropriate response.

Operators easily attribute the movement of the planchette to spirits because it doesn't seem at all like they're providing enough force to move it themselves. This is why the planchette must be virtually frictionless to work. This effect is heightened with more than one operator, since the already-miniscule force required to move the planchette is now divided among them. Once the planchette gets moving, it is very easy for the operators to think that the planchette should (say) be moving towards "yes," and therefore that is exactly what it does.

I can admit that demon are behind the Ouija board. I played with the Ouija for years by myself. I know what I messed with and I didn't understand the the power behind it. The house that I grew up in is still effected by it. May things happen that where unexplainable and troubling. There is powers behind it that are not worldly and many will laugh at that but I can't put it any other way.

Demons are the spirits of the angels that where part of the fall. They are agents of things that keep many from seeing God and they do a good job.

I know of the existence of demons, even without using the Ouija board(yes I played as a teenager - stupid thing to play with). A good friend of mine is an intercessor, she knows all too well of demons. I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but here is a reference:

"You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder." - James 2:19

It's also said that at final judgement, Satan and his demons will all confess that Jesus is Lord, though I can't give you a specific reference.

I played ouija, and I deny the existence of demons. Although for the game it was fun to believe. This game is all subliminal. One of the people in the group wants to say yes and so the undecided's follow it to where it should go, those who want No move to no, the majority rules. We got my friend good one time.

He didn't believe in it at all, so we asked the board what question he was thinking of. It spelled out Yellow. My friend turned DEATHLY pale... I have no idea how it happened, but it was cool.

hello:}
what happens when we use the Ouija board it actually is very simple ,as it is one of the cheapest and easiest type tools to get anyone can play theres no instructions ,there is no learning about it ,what happens is the earthbound spirits /ghosts can have easy access to this sort of medium .they usually start out giving you some useful info but truly their motive is to end up telling you their story ,inbibing their own set of values and truths ,it isnt that it is demons or evil but you are opening up to a more negative energy and as i said earthbound souls are passed but can not get to the light ,not demons just sad individuals who are attracted to the Ouija because it is used without experience .
no such thing as demons ,dark people ,negative people ,evil people sure ,but demons -------no -------------
hope this helps a bit .

People can deny anything. One translation of the Bible warns against using Ouija boards.

demons and spirits are not the same thing. So the answer is yes.

most people who "play" with a ouija board are pushing the glass
