Focu27, I guarantee you that your whole perspective on the paranormal will be transformed if you carefully read David Fontana, "Is There an Afterlife?  A Comprehensive Overview of the Evidence."  I have repeatedly challenged and dared you to readt, but you have ducked my challenge in terror at what this might do to your smug dogmatism.  You won't be able to resist this awesome evidence for the paranormal.  Prove me wrong!  The only thing that saves you is your close-minded and your rssulitng refusal to embrace and honest and open inquiry.

Also,

If it moves with 2 people there then how can you scientifically test this?

You won't know who was making the movements as the ideomotor effect is an involuntary reaction. It's also a very basic reaction so I find it very hard to believe that it's capable of spelling out messages on a board!

Not saying that the messages are from spirits of course but saying it's the ideomotor effect is an assumption at best.

This doesn't answer my questions at all as it doesn't prove that it's the ideomotor effect beyond all doubt, it's just a possible explanation and still needs more testing.

Oh, I don't have time to sift through all of the nonsense which google brings up about oujia boards from seemingly crackpot believers and equally crackpot pseudosceptics.

Why not post a link to what you would class as a valid source?

Some things cannot be verified, i.e what my first pets name was. I could tell you but as it can't be verified does that mean that I'm lying?

Still needs more testing.

Hi Berserk,

Just out of interest, which points do you disagree with me on this?

I'd say you know a lot more than I do on this subject as I have little experience of ouija boards, so I would appreciate your insight so I can come to a better understanding of the subject.

Andy

P.S. Simple logic tells me that Focus's points weren't the answer to what is happening with ouija boards. At least not the definitive answer, that is.
