Would it be ok for me to use a ouija board with my religion?

ugh, lemmings are you all. This is a TOY, there is no occult value or w/e whatsoever, you cannot communicate with the dead by using such a device. Of course christianity would ban anything that would keep you in their hand so they may freely control what you say, do, and act. Its a medieval form of control and honestly to let it dictate your life in such a way is a sin in itself.

fuck with the board, get bored, then let whatever happens happen.

lol witchcraft, why dont you go burn your “friend” for doing it?

When I was 10… I went over to my friend Tommy’s house. He was having a sleepover and amongst all of the other slated events… at Midnight we were going to bust out his brand new OUIJA board and become the true hellions 10 year old boys are wont to become. So at the stroke of midnight we gather around in a circle… still watching late night Cinemax… and carry on this half hearted seance.

I can’t remember all of the questions we asked… no doubt someone asked when someone else sitting there was going to die… someone probably asked if his 4th grade crush with the mouth full of braces really liked him… all standard questions. At the end… the very last question… Tommy asked if he had a soul. ‘NO!’ He looked mortified. Then he went around and asked if the rest of us sitting there had souls… and each one got a ‘YES!’ Now Tommy is thinking that we are all in on the joke so he then asks…’If I don’t have a soul… where is my soul?’ ‘HERE’ was the response and then slowly the pointer spelled out ‘FOREVER.’

This was big news for all of ten minutes… before we moved onto the next phase of the night… setting booby traps for Tommy’s older sister coming home from her date and after that getting ready to wreak havoc on the first one of us to fall asleep.

The next school day everyone notices that Tommy doesn’t look himself. He has an unnatural pallor… almost grey. He is listless and quiet and keeps his head hanging from his shoulders. When we were finally able to pry some words from his mouth… we discover how distraught he is at this stupid OUIJA board.

Another friend and I decide to come by later that afternoon… we were going to set the OUIJA board on fire… thereby releasing Tommy’s soul back into the ether and naturally it would be able to find him standing there soulless… and waiting. We do that. Tommy said he actually felt a bolt of energy hit him in the gut and from that point on he was right as rain.

End of story… Until about six months down the road. Tommy was spending the weekend with his cousins on the lake. Around one in the morning his aunt smelled smoke and opening her eyes she noticed it was very thick. She found her way to the kids room and her two boys were already awake feeling for the door. Tommy never woke up. His uncle carried his slightly charred body out… but it was too late. He had died of smoke inhalation… ironic to those of us who were there for the sleepover. Even more so when we noticed that he had died on the exact date the return by warranty notice on the OUIJA board also expired.

I guess it is good to be cautious about these things… I will never forget what his mom had to say about it all. Perhaps her words can best encompass the moral to this story.

I was helping her sort through his stuff and I confessed to the game and to helping burn it… then I asked her if she thought I should ever fool with one again and I will never forget what she said… she said…’STOP BEING A PU$$Y AND GO HAVE FUN WITH A HARMLESS GAME… YOU’RE ONLY YOUNG ONCE AND IF YOU ALLOW THE MOST PARANOID PEOPLE AROUND YOU TO TELL YOU HOW TO BEHAVE YOU CAN EXPECT TO LIVE A LIFE FULL OF GRIEF AND WORRY AND NO FUN AT ALL. BEING A REAL CHRISTIAN MEANS REJECTING ALL OF THAT RELIGIOUS HULLABALOO OVER NOTHING. TRICK OR TREAT AND TELL GHOST STORIES ON HALLOWEEN AND ENJOY LIFE. NONE OF THIS VIOLATES ANY KIND OF STANDARD YOU OR YOUR MISGUIDED CHURCH MEMBERS THINK JESUS MAY HAVE FOR YOU!’

Then she took me out for ice cream… I had the superman flavor… red… yellow… blue… It tasted like bubble gum.

THE END.

I dont think it would be disobayin god beacuse as long as your doin it just to have fun it shouldnt be bad unless you take it serious and want to be a devile worshiper… when I was at a birthday party we messed around with one for fun… no demonds haunted me… :) have fun if you do try!!!

Will you anger your god or be dealing with witchcraft if you play Twister? Like Toadaly said its a game sold in stores.

If that doesnt comfort you theres always mind over matter. If you are TRYING to use it as tools for witchcraft then technically sure you’d be involved in witchcraft which according to your religion is a big no no. But if you arent trying to, then I guess you have nothing to worry about.

It’s all in how you use it.

They’re sold in the game section of toy stores. That should tell you how dangerous they are.

You know that by using the ouija board it will cause you big time consequenses. Even you are Questioning it, the Ouija board falls into which craft, Spiritism, And God condemns Spiritism, Why? Because it has to do with Demons and satan! Using the Ouija Board Even tough YOU know Its Wrong is like turning away from God. Why would you do something that God HATES!? the Ouija board is just Going to Bring problems your going to open the doors to demons to mess with you, and thats not something you want to experience. It the Worst thing you can do! just stay away from it.

I understand that you are curious…quite frankly I am too…but you have to weigh out the pros and cons…often when you consider the cons and what you might lose you re-think how great your curiosity is. I am a christian as well..and personally I wouldnt do it because the spiritual world is not somthing to be messed or played with…it can have long lasting concequences (like what happened to your mom and friend). just think weather or not your willing to have two years bad luck or pherhaps be haunted by a demon…or worse…would you risk your everlasting life with God for it? just sayin…im pretty chill when it comes to religion..I don’t know I consider myself to have more of a spiritual relationship with God rather than religious..I dont really like religion…so if you think about it on a spiritual level its kind of like you are betrying God in a sense…so…is it worth the curiosity? you may also think of it as a battle you can try to win! demons or santan or whatnot is trying to tempt you using something they/he knows you want. fight it! :) thats just my take on it. hope I helped
I know youll make the right descision

I think that you should not use the ouija board. It is in the bible that God dose not want you to do that. If you want answers God is the one to ask. Or you can go to a precher and ask him or her. I say no because I have heard way to many bad stories about using the ouija board. I also think that you should do some research about it so you can fully understand what this ouija board thing is all about. I think that you should do this because your very curious about it. Just be careful because you don’t want to get your self into something that you can’t get your self out of. I really think you should not do it.

I am also Christian and this is a very bad idea. Many people would like to try it, but it is contacting the spiritual world. I have a friend who has had some really bad run-ins with demons, and you seriously do not want to try this.

I agree with the other responses to your question and you should stay away from it. Have you considered trying Tarot cards? They are very helpful for seekers such as yourself.

honestly its not of god and you shouldnt do anything thts nt of god ause in imple terms its sin but your going to sin all your life and god gve us our own free will so I sa do it and hae fun and pray for forgivness later I mean jesus died for our sins so that we would ot have to go to hell so go for it

have fun

Personally, I don’t think anybody should go anywhere near a Ouija board. They are just bad news from the start. Most people do not know how to use them safely. There are much safer methods to contact lost loved ones.

STAY AWAY FROM IT !!!…you WILL regret it.., those things are no joke., scary…you’re not missing out on ANYTHING., curiosity killed the cat..,don’t let it kill your karma too…

depends what you feel about it. Most of the time nothing happens, so I wouldn’t suggest it If you want to know more about this stuff, google it or sumthin

As a general rule, most Christian religions frown on using an oija board because by their nature they deal with the occults. Many occults use the element of curiosity to get someone involved in them. Occults will usually go against the teachings of Christianity. My conjecture is that if you brought up the topic of Christianity in your life in discussing the oija board… then you have already answered your own question. In your life, you have the feedom of choice between right and wrong. Your personal choices in everything will determine how well your life goes. Choose wisely and be happy. :-)

Ouija boards piss the dead off. The end.
