You know I was compleatly facinated by my board when I was a child.
I was 6 years old when I got my first one.
Course I didnt get the darn thing to work till I was nearly 9 and it frightened me I so packed it away untill I was about 14
I dont know if they honestly connect with the spiritual world or not.
However humans (some anyway) do have a thing that in common terms is called mind over matter.
Its rare and happens most often in the brains of troubled children and teens.
But overall the Ouijia boards are pretty neat and most the time nothing more than a game.
I personaly just wouldnt give one to a child.
The reason being (and you have to belive in spirts) is that it CAN be dangerouse.
Now I dont know a daemons but it is said that the dead strive and want to be back in the warmth of life .
Is possesion possible?
Maybe I dont know and I cant prove if it is or not niether can anyone else it would seem.
But I do belive in spirits if your in tune closly with your surrounding you can feel them sometimes.
Though I never seen one
My ex mother in law owned a house that windows came open by themselves and chairs stacked on the table constatly.
My children would scream and cry if the dineing area was entered.
Needless to say I was frightened of that house.
I didnt learn that a man had murdered his wife and killed himself there some 40 years earlier untill after I had gottena divorce from my ex.
My ex's father had also died in that house.
The only place besides that I have ever come in contact with a actuall spirit was my parents old house as a child.
My dad called it Sam and Sam never did anything except move things around in my mothers sewing room. But the dog never would enter that room.
Records showed no deaths in the modern house but a fire on the plot on an older house that a child died in.
But it takes many levels of belife and I think the Boards you must have some level of belife to get to work.
There are some people out there that say ghosts and such are compleate rubbish.
But they arnt not really.
Some people are just to dence or closed to relize.
I'm not sure why the bible labled some of those things as Sins.
Science has pretty much desided we are all born with what is known as a 6th sence.
Just some of us are raised to belive its rubbish and someware along the way like all skills we lose it if its not used.
I was lucky enough to have had catholic foster parents who never installed that into me but rather raised me to belive and have respect for the dead.
And a father who is an Aethist who never installed religious fears or rescrictions on me.
Anyway here is a artical on Mind over matter its always had the scientific community interested http://paranormal.about.com/library/weekly/aa071601a.htm
