People actually believe in this -.-?

And the light as a feather and stiff as a board crap if anyone else here has heard of it
Quote:
A Ouija board (/ˈwiːdʒə/ also /ˈwiːdʒiː/), also known as a spirit board or talking board, is a flat board marked with letters, numbers, and other symbols, theoretically used to communicate with spirits. It uses a planchette (small heart-shaped piece of wood) or movable indicator to indicate the spirit's message by spelling it out on the board during a séance. The fingers of the séance participants are placed on the planchette, which then moves about the board to spell out messages. Ouija is a trademark for a talking board currently sold by Parker Brothers.[1] It has become a trademark that is often used generically to refer to any talking board. Since its invention in the late nineteenth century, the Oujia board has been associated with the threat of demonic possession.[2] Consequently, mainstream Christian denominations, have warned against using Ouija boards.[3] Occultists, on the other hand, are divided on the issue, with some saying that it can be a positive transformation; others echo the warnings of Christendom and caution verdant users against it.[3]

how do we know that it's actually someone participates to the game push it? And why other people didn't try to push to another direction to neutralize the force for the previous push?

i'm not asking how it works, i'm asking if scientists used any tools to measure the brain activity and the "will" or not when people are playing ouija board?

it's not the same, it involves ideomotor effect, as they said.

Did you even read what I wrote Silo?

The truth - that belief in Ouija boards is as justifiable as belief in religion. Thus all religious people making fun of you are hypocritical.

Not aware of any recent studies done to measure brain activity while playing Ouija, mostly because such would be redundant, but the ideomotor effect would most likely show up on electroencephalography exams as a healthy person's normal pattern who is imagining some type of kinesiological activity, that is to say, one would see a heart rate and respiratory frequency increase and most likely a shift of the sympathovagal indexes towards a sympathetic predominance which, more often than not, is quickly associated with some bogus paranormal sensation.

oh, slow down, too much biological term here.
I'd like to see a real result including environment around as well as everything inside the body. It's more convincing that plain guess: it's ideomotor effect because [insert definition here]..., if this ... if that...

Belief has its purpose in motivating or bringing out confidence but it should not be mistaken with facts. In other words...believing in whatever you want to is fine until you try to pass it off as facts without proof.

Me first me first. Wait..

Here's another example. Our atmosphere is composed of 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 0.9% argon, 0.03% carbon dioxide, and trace amounts of other gases. You can claim it is made of magical energy, discarded fairy dust waste, used tampons, and ketchup. That's fine, you're entitled to your own beliefs, but that doesn't make you any less crazy and outcast. Sorry.

When no evidence points towards your claims/beliefs and/or to the contrary to your beliefs, expect ridicule. That's just how things work... you have to bring more to the table after making crazy claims.
