Faith wielded in the correct direction can move mountains. The purpose of education is to war. The teachings matter not , no more than the words you scream in battle. The value of the learning teaches the scream.
So, don't underestimate the wisdom of those who wish you to survive on a city street or a raging hell., because one day you may turn to your faith to make a decision and the elders are hoping you are in touch with powers which far exceed any physical or mental capacity you think you have or have not.

Kinda narrow point, but i'll wing it.
First of all, nobody said anything about not teaching about spirits....there's even the holy spirit, that filled disciples, blessed Jesus after his baptism, and the tounges of fire episode, in the upper room.
A lot of hullaballo is raised, when the church made the mention, that man should not seek to speak to the dead, with mediums, etc.
However, they do exist....even Saul discovered this, when he contacted a witch at Endor, prior to his death in a battle with philistines....he had her call up the spirit of Samuel, who told him, by this time tomorrow, you and your sons will be dead.
What is against the bible's teachings, however, is this. practicing witchcraft, praying to idols, putting your kids through fire, and as well, failing to listen to God's rules regarding the dead.
Also, it's possible to fall victim, to false angels, that would lead you astray, or spirit guides, who manipulate you, and if you question them, become very angry.
In short, religions to teach of spirits...and Jesus did a number of demons in miracles, either drowning them, casting them into pigs, or simply sending them back....but even the demons knew of Jesus....and were afraid, with good reason.

That only applies to the mainstream religious community (i.e Christianity, muslim ect) However the pagan religions do teach spirit communication. It not however done with ouija boards, they are not used. Instead it is done through meditation, trance dances and evocation.

christens dont want to communate with bad spirits.and no one can communate with a christen spirit because if you are in heaven god will not let you see all the evil stuff going on on earth.because all is perfect in heaven .if your mom and dad go to heaven and you are a sinner they will not know you ever existed.so they can always be joyful.so if you communate with a spirit this spirit will be communating from hell oh yes they are out there but only to deceive you..i dont really know how to word this but hope it will get across to you

Spirit is part of the mind and body, it's a union of faith and religions, if interpreted and taught effectively is supposed to be positive and a unifying force between people.

Silly it is all about the things we cannot see. it is not a religion but a boy scout meeting if you come together to teach the things you can only see.

These communications exist. Jesus told the spirits not to speak.

You can't teach what you don't see. guess that leaves out visually handicapped. Then again you also can't see electricity, radio waves, magnetism, etc omly the affects thereof. Guess you can't teach that either so get off that computer as you don't know enough to use it.

To assert that 'sight' is a proof of the existence or non-existence of something is usually a philosophy that the average 4th grader has mentally developed beyond. I do not "C" you, yet I know you exist. How do you explain that?
