Moral Magic

In the past week I have experienced some rather interesting thoughts on being moral. I know I have had thoughts on this before but this time I am forced to make a choice and the line is so gray I cant really see it.

I am involved in a very fun group activity of volunteer acting at a haunted house. My second night there I had experienced something of a real haunting within the building. Things like this dont bother me as I know spirits are everywhere. Since then I have been told stories of how a young lady who worked there last year ran screaming of evil and never returned. I have also both taken pictures and seen pictures of unexplained phenomena.

In curiosity to communicate, my co actors decided to bring in a Ouija board. I wasnt told about this until the next day to which my heart sank. I spent the better part of an hour closing all opened forms of communication to the spirit world. My co actors then tried to communicate with the spirit again. This time with no luck. I stuck around to give them a serious talking to about the dangers of opening the doors of communication without knowing what it is they are communicating with. I am not sure if they believed me or not until I opened the doors and asked them to ask how many spirits are there. They got a direct answer for the first time all night.

My problem with this is now they know what I do and part of who I am. They are a curious lot and really wish to have answers. Far to explosive to be serious or level headed about it.

I fear being pestered by my new friends because of my gift. Part of me wants to open the doors again and let them find out for themselves so they will learn the same way I did. Another part of me wants to be patient with them and wait it out. And yet another answer is to teach the entire group how to use the board right. I personally don't like boards because they have no feeling and I have found a lie can be better told without emotions aware.

I have a very important choice to make and to be honest I'm not sure which way I will go.
