...I naively fell many years ago and I will NEVER FORGET...

I also have experience with those things. We were scientific with our experiments; and, verified that these things are not baseless. I do indead classify them as dangerous because they clearly open one up to spritual harm.

For you skeptic readers, one of the experiments was conducted as follows: Two groups of people separated by hundreds of miles were able to send messages through this medium. Message text was double blind and flawlessly delivered. Cell phones and even pagers had not been invented. There was no communication between these groups except the Ouija Boards. Validation occured when the paper with the transcribed message was returned to the parent group.

Thank you!!! for the post and ping.

Years later, I related the experience of what happened on a hot July day, to a group of youth preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation. Not one of them slept that night and I received phone calls from many of the upset parents.

Uh huh.

You just carelessly forgot to mention the disinterested observers who monitored both the participants chosen at the last moment, as well as the contents of the messages, written at the last moment. Right?

Double blind my elbow!

Do you know you can collect $1,000,000 for repeating this piece of research?

If you don’t need the money you could always send it to Haiti.

If you can duplicate this, then the James Randi Foundation will give you $1 million. Unless you're full of crap, that is.
