While reading a blog from mindhackers, "What makes the ouija board move" I began to feel a little more at ease about ghosts. You may choose to continue to believe in the idea that ouija boards move due to spiritual contact, however according to the blog, "The mystery isn't a connection to the spirit world, but why we can make movements and yet not realise that we're making them."
It's crazy to think that we can unconsciously make body movements without realizing that we're doing them. This ordinary magic of consciousness has led to cases of "facilitated communication". This is where people believe that carers can help severely disabled children communicate with a keyboard, which the carers guide their fingers around. In reality, they're the ones causing the movement, and were typing the messages on their own. This phenomenon, strangely, can be traced back to how little kids can shout "It wasn't me!" when clearly they were the ones who did, but they don't feel like they did it.
Although this is the scientific method of why ouija boards move, there are still unexplained stories about why people spell out certain things while using it. There are many strange things in this world, in which not all science can make sense of. This definitely made me feel a little better, but there's so many questions still left unaswered!!
What do you think? Do you agree? Scientific Explanation or Spiritual Contact???
