Because there's always the hope that some day the spiritual blindness will be lifted and the Holy Spirit will be permitted to illumine your mind and you will see the truth.

I see. So it's using scripture like a magic spell or charm.

I've heard there's a lot of that in third world countries, too; mixing Christianity with Voodoo and such.

Guess I shouldn't be surprised....

Mixing God's Word with anything brings deception.

The ONLY TRUTH is GOD'S Holy Spirit inspired Word ALONE!

Like in predominantly Catholic countries like Haiti?

Yeah, I'm not surprised either. Catholicism is very accommodating to superstition.
