Retail giant Amazon is selling a Holy Spirit Board for $29.95, which claims that people can communicate directly with Jesus if they sit together in a dimly lit room, holding hands or forming a circle.
It’s the “Christian” version of the Ouija board, in which participants receive spelled out messages and answers to their questions from spirits or other so-called supernatural entities. The “Holy Spirit Board,” features artwork of angels and the crucifixion, and a golden “magic cross” planchette – used to facilitate the alleged writing of spiritual messages.
Catholic exorcist Fr Ernesto Caro had warned last year that what is being marketed on Amazon as a Christian “Holy Spirit” board game is “not a game” at all but instead “a trap from the devil.”On a segment of EWTN News Nightly, Fr Caro, an exorcist in the Diocese of Monterey, Mexico, said that “the devil is always looking for different ways that he can trap all the victims that he can take for him, and this is one.”
Produced by Holy Spirit Games, the game is described as a “Christian Religious Talking Board for Séance with Planchette,” that is “perfect for churches, prayer groups or just getting together with friends.”
