    Hard disagree. The Bible has verses that condemn psychics and mediums, not that that has ever stopped them from rationalizing other acts, but the Bible is anti-psychic.

    When I was a Methodist, my churches were all adamant that psychics and mediums were either con artists or were coordinating with evil spirits or the devil, and it was forbidden. Same with Catholics. Generally in my experience with all American Southern Christians and some northern ones too, the more devout they are, the more against the occult they are.

      Your interpretation of the bible is anti-psychic. Other Christians disagree. Some have even written books about it, as noted in my other comment. But the point isn’t what the bible says…the point is that psychics aren’t real, regardless of what Christians believe.

        I’m realizing now that I misread your reply as “some Christian beliefs” rather than “some ChristianS beliefs,” but I was never implying all Christians believe the same thing.

        I’m just shocked that there aren’t a significant number of Christians watching Fox News that would be pissed that they are putting a psychic on and promoting the occult.
