how many of yall think the Ouija board is demonic?

Question

I'm Christian, and I think the Ouija board is demonic as well... when you "think" you're talking to your lost loved ones, you're actually talkin to demons and spirits, what do yall think about that?

Answer 1

I don't think the devil invented the game. I have played with it for fun and didn't go trying to conjure up the dead and maybe even the dead in Christ! Angels know what is going on. You don't have to talk to them on a board game.
If it is answers you are wanting from them you need to ask God to show you the way. Forest Gump lol "and that's all i've got to say about that"

Answer 2

I think the Ouija board is just that...a game. Most of what moves the move is everyone's involuntary hand movement. Also, maybe there is a hidden psychic power within us all that when combined, may be transferred onto the Ouija board. Thus, if you're trying to reach a dead person, devil, etc. it becomes a portal.

Answer 3

I don't think most folks understand what a Ouija board is, what it does, or what it's for. Therefore, it's probably a bad idea to mess around with things that one doesn't understand and can't really comprehend the consequences of.
Is it specifically demonic? Not necessarily.

Answer 4

I am a Christian and tried it once when I was younger. I think if you believe that you are going to make contact with someone you'll end up talking to demonic spirits. I think for the most part that it's just a bunch of crud and that those who open there mind to Satan will allow this as a portal directly to influence you.

Answer 5

I agree with you. When you [people in general] open yourself up to things like this you will start talking to familiar spirits and letting demonic activity in to the home/ones life. If there is one in your house or dorm room have it removed or burned if possible.

Answer 6

It's a telephone to the devil and he will pick up. Do you know some prisoners at a correctional institute messed with the
Ouija board you should read what happened to them:

Spirits spook Santa Clara County inmates after Ouija-board session
BY ROXANNE STATES
San Jose Mercury News
[undated -- late Aug. or early Sept. 2000]

A circle of inmates set a Ouija board on the floor and gathered around. They leaned in, and, together, prayed to the devil. At one point, inmates said, they lightly placed their finger on the board and called up the spirit of a woman.

They asked the spirit how she died, then followed the message indicator around the handcrafted board as it spelled out: ``I was murdered.'' They asked how, then watched the indicator move letter to letter, spelling out "investigate."

The inmates were spooked. But the game wasn't over. According to Santa Clara County Jail officials, the inmates went from asking a few questions to praying to Satan to three of them screaming out loud after they thought they were possessed by demons. The bizarre situation became so intense, jail officials said, that correctional officers immediately called in a priest who, one by one, blessed 29 prisoners as he sprinkled them, and then the group's dormitory, with holy water.

"We have never, ever had anything like this occur here,"
said Bryan Peretti, county department of correction spokesman. The Ouija board -- a plain board with the alphabet and words Yes, No and Goodbye printed on it -- is said to have been around, in some variation, for hundreds of years. Some sit down to the board out of curiosity, others to seek spiritualistic or telepathic messages.The jail inmates, all documented gang members, said they spent an entire night earlier this month crafting the board. They used the underside of a Scrabble
game as the base, fancily penciled in the alphabet, and shaped a piece of cardboard into a teardrop to use as the "message indicator," which, in theory, mysteriously moves from letter to letter, spelling out messages, after a question is asked. Then, on three separate nights, four to five inmates gathered at one time in the bathroom: It's the darkest place in the dorm, with just a flicker shining in from afar. Before long, inmate Isaias Velasquez, 21, said he and others thought they felt a presence in the bathroom. They asked the board if anyone was in there, and the teardrop began spinning uncontrollably, he claimed.
Everyone bolted. When they went back in, Marcos Vasquez said, he looked at the board on the floor, then turned to face the others. "I felt cold and bigger," the 26-year-old said. Inmates thought that Vasquez was acting, but the drama continued. By the third day, three inmates, including Vasquez, feared they might be possessed. They tore up the board and threw it away.

But on the morning of Aug. 5, two correctional officers -- who never saw the inmates toying with the Ouija board -- said they heard screams coming from the inmates' dorm. They went inside and confronted a chaotic scene in which inmates were crying and flailing their arms. Peretti, the corrections spokesman, said officers soon realized the inmates "seriously believed" they were possessed. After interviewing all the inmates involved, jail officials said they don't believe the fear was feigned. They called the priest away from his other prayer duties and asked that he bless and counsel the inmates. The clergyman then spent two days counseling the three inmates most overpowered by fear.

Marilu Edder, who has been director of Detention Ministry of the Diocese of San Jose for about 15 years, said this is the first time she has heard of the county's jail inmates using a Ouija board. But it's not unusual, she said, for some to pray to the devil. Most of the inmates involved were Hispanic, Catholic
and probably overcome by guilt, she said. "They were doing something they weren't supposed to," Edder said, "and they were probably fearful what they might have done."

According to an internal memo about the incident, the priest told
jail administrators one thing that he neglected to tell the inmates:
that the Catholic Church doesn't believe a person can become
possessed through use of a Ouija board. Edder declined to say whether she believed the board could evoke spirits. "It's not for me to say whether they are or are not possessed.We need to honor whatever people think is going on with themselves," Edder said.


The board, she added, goes into the same grouping as tarot cards and fortune tellers. "It's nothing to play with." Vasquez is now taking that advice seriously. The inmate, who has tattoos that run up his arms and cover his chest and neck, said last week that he was counseled twice, and still has a hard time sleeping. He still can't explain what came over him, but said one thing's certain. He's never touching a Ouija board again.
