Answer 2

Parker Brothers did not invent the Ouija Board. It had already been around for awhile when it was bought by Parker Brothers in 1966 and turned into a commercial success as a board game. Its beginnings lie in the distant past when an earlier version (a tripod device) was used in the ancient ways of Babylon and Greece to contact departed spirits. The tripod became the pointer now used with the Board, which is printed with the alphabet, the numbers 1-9, a 0 (zero), and the words 'Goodbye', 'Yes', and 'No'. There are other boards like this with different names, but with the same history and purpose. The modern version of this game was developed by a man named Planchette, a spiritualist (someone who contacts the dead as part of their religion). The Board was further transformed around the turn of the century under the direction and ownership of two men, Elijah J. Bond and William Fuld. Fuld’s name can be seen on the Ouija Board today. The name Ouija is a combination of the French and German words for 'yes': Oui and Ja. According to Bond and Fuld, the Board suggested its own name. The primary purpose of the board is and always has been to contact disembodied spirits. Contacting the dead is called necromancy, and contacting spirits is spiritism, both strongly condemned by God (Deut. 18:9-12; Lev. 19:31, 20:6; I Sam 28, II Kings 21:6; Is. 8:19, 19:3-4). The Board’s translated name, 'yes, yes', is an ingenious and subtle way to invite spirit contact. Dead people cannot hang around after death; you cannot communicate with a dead person. The practices and techniques of contacting the dead and contacting spirits are used widely in the occult. Although the pointer is often moved intentionally or subconsciously by the players, you are putting yourself in a vulnerable position when using the Board. By 'playing' this 'game', you are showing an interest in spirit contact. If contact is made, it is demons (evil spirits, fallen angels), not the dead, who are responding. If Satan can disguise himself as "an angel of light" (2 Cor. 11:14), then it is not improbable that fallen angels can disguise themselves as the dead. The Ouija Board is not harmless just because it is marketed as a game. Satan, the master of deception and seduction, is good at twisting the truth into lies (Gen. 3:1-6; Jn. 8:44). Satan likes disguises and his lies are often disguised as games. The next time you are tempted to play the Ouija Board as a game, look beyond its disguise and see it for what it really is. Think about this: Just what or who are you trying to contact? God tells us to seek Him instead of the dead (Is. 8:19), and Christ "lives forever to plead with God" on behalf of those who believe Him (Heb. 7:25b). Who wants the Ouija Board when you can know the One Who has "complete authority in heaven and on earth!" (Matt.28:18). If you are wondering about Christ, think on His words in John 5:23b-24, "He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father , who sent him. I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life."

Watch a documentary on them, I think I saw it on Discovery Channel.  They're basically nothing supernatural and the "messages" come from the minds of the people using the board, not spirits or demons, lol.

You can prove it by blindfolding the people using the board.

Answer 4

Some people believe in them! They are a pretty evil source!

I suggest staying away from them!

My last one was tossed in the river! It was sooo evil!

Not a good thing for a group of kids to play with.

Answer 5

A Ouija board is used to get spirits to talk to you.  The board has a bunch of letters and numbers that when all of your friends and yourself, are touching a dial thing (I'm not sure what its called), it moves and begins to cover letters and numbers after asking questions.  They will spell out the answer to the question that was being asked.

Answer 6

I have played Ouija before and it was scary.

Here's a few things to do before you even play:

~Light white candles. place one to the left and right of the board. This will help contact a good spirit

~Make sure no sharp objects are in reach

~Sprinkle the board and pointer with sea salt

~Pray to whatever deity you worship

As you probably know, the players lightly place their fingertips on the pointer and ask questions. (for safety, first ask "is there a spirit on the board?" and then "can we ask you some questions?" *NEVER OUIJA BY YOURSELF*)

Two of my friends were in the closet while we did this, they were scared. We asked our spirit if he wanted the girls in the closet. It's response was "Not if you like them alive"

Scary, ehh? That's why safety is so important when playing Ouija.

When finished, say goodbye to your spirit and wait until the pointer moves to where it says "goodbye" on the board. Then wipe the board with a clean, soft cloth and put it away.

If you really want a spirit, here's some tips:

~NEVER talk when the pointer is moving. Spirits are very easily offended. (ask if you can say the letters that the spirit spells out)

~Lay out flowers. Spirits like them.

~Keep it quiet.

~Spirits like stormy weather and lunar/solar eclipses.

*warning: don't play if it's too stormy, that increases the chances of a bad spirit. Also, don't play on the day of the eclipse, but maybe a few days before.*
