Only at Halloweeny Slip? whycome
I don't like to have the cards in my house. Weird, I know. But every halloween I con someone into buying me a new deck and I read everyone's fortunes that night.
Just on Halloween, because it seems appropriate to me.

Loves,
We predict your wallet will loose weight
if you start screwing around with those Psych-O's!
And holding out your palm... yesss, we see, we see
a NEW Man in your life... uh, huuhhh, yes, and his name is
FRED HALL!!

That was a free reading.

Having lived in the Caribbean for 13 years, I can tell you that I would never go to a psychic reading by someone with a fake accent!!
A few points about "spiritism". First, despite what Deu. 18
says, the Bible is not consistent on the subject. While
"looking for omens" is condemned, Prov. 16:33 says "into the
lap the lot is cast down, but every decision by it is from
Jehovah".( a method later used to pick an apostle -Acts 1:26)
While sorcery is condemned, correspondence magick is used
by Jacob (Genesis 30: 31-42 - the principle behind voodoo).
Did Joseph read omens? (Genesis 44:5) He definitely
interpreted dreams, which falls into that category. Making
the claim that God is revealing an omen is something any
psychic could assert.
Also, psychic ability is now being referred to as
"intuitive ability". And why not? There is no strict line
of demarcation separating a pure psychic revelation from a
brilliant creative notion that just happens to pop into
your head. It's just a matter of degree. The Society,
being jealous for power and control, rejects any idea
of spiritual gifts which is absurd, considering that some
people have strong natural abilities - and again, there
is no strict dividing line between the obviously miraculous
and other less dramatic talents ( 1 Cor. 12: 28 "abilities
to direct").

Good point Metatron,
Emphasis on the "the Bible is not consistent on the subject". Remember the Urim & Thummim(???). A number of prophets and others
used some omen or augery with no apparent condemnation and frequently with approval of God. OK when it suits the theme of the scripture, I suppose.

I saw a show on TV over a year ago exposing several Psychics and the tricks of their trade. If you don't mind spending a few bucks for a good laugh, try one. Tell them things that do not really pertain to your life and watch how they make s..t up.
I like the guys who bend spoons with their minds. yeah, right.
animalmother,
It is a proven fact that spoons can be bent with just the thought process of ones mind. I saw Superman do this in a cartoon.
...yeah your right. We're all living in the Matrix. I wish one of those agents took out Keanu Reeves.
