Fortune Tellers

As the world grows more uncertain, people have a desire to know the future. We saw a huge increase after 9/11 of people calling psychic hotlines. The website that tracks Nostradamus prophecies was barraged with traffic during the same time.

Now it is all happening again. Is the Mayan calendar really accurate? Is NASA correct that all electricty could be shut off in 2012 because of a perfect solar storm? Are "aliens" really going to make contact with the earth's governments in 2009 like the Ashtar followers are saying? Are the Shiite prophecies correct that the 12th Imam is going to show up and rule the world with shariah law? Is Meitreya coming back to explain how we can all live in peace?

USA TODAY says;

Anecdotal evidence indicates that psychics, astrologers, palm readers, Tarot card shufflers, numerologists and other paranormal specialists have become the rage as investment advisers and brokers appear clueless. After all, if the times aren't normal, why not try the paranormal?

Did you catch that..."why not try the paranormal?" And this article appeared in USA TODAY at 1, 000,000 newstands around the country. http://www.usatoday.com/news/offbeat/2009-03-15-psychics_N.htm

What does the bible have to say about psychics and people who summon the dead? God was specific in Leviticus 20:27, "A man or woman who is a medium or spiritist among you must be put to death. You are to stone them: their blood will be on their own heads." While it's true we are not living under the age of Levitical laws, it is still obvious to understand that God doesn't want us playing with sources of demonic influence. He wants us to stay focused on His Word.

It's also interesting that NBC has a hit show called MEDIUM. How lost our country is.
