Question by Eric J. Danger: Has anyone had strange experiences with Ouija boards or the occult?

I'm very interested and curious in Ouija boards and other such portals to other dimensions. Has anyone had strange experiences with Ouija boards or anything else from the occult? You can email me if you don't feel like answering on the forum, I am very intrigued.

Answer by eri
Ouija boards work on the ideomotor effect - you're moving it yourself, whether you realize it or not. So that's why you can never get anything out of one you didn't know or couldn't have made up yourself - you're not contacting anything but your own subconcious. 'Portals' don't exist, and when scientists talk about other dimensions, we're not talking about places you can go, like on Buffy. We're talking about tiny spacial dimensions wrapped up inside our own. If they do exist, you can't go there - you're already in them. Nature is cool enough on it's own without having to make up more stuff to put in it.
