Why would any Christian ever seek knowledge from Oracles?

The spirituality of a Christian is not based on abstract metaphysical nuances.

Christianity treads a more direct and personal relationship with God.The framework of the various denominations of Christianity are loosely based on that direct personal relationship.
Layers of human bureaucracy have been artificially added, and the true message of Christ has been diluted, in the name of fellowship, and by the same type of people who have always sought power and controll over others.
Rituals and tradition are not evil, in and of themselves.
Spiritual comfort and support are found in them, and it is important to the live physical life we have been given.

Sorry. My use of the term Oracle was to explain the name Delphi. We are actually seeking to tap the wisdom of experts. The Delphi technique, properly employed, structures a debate between or among experts (usually anonymously) in order to solve a business problem or develop a forecast. It's another idea generation and development tool like brainstorming, mind-mapping, etc.
