Good point, but if I read the NT I'm not at all getting the impression that things like tarot cards, or astrology, dowsing, and other practices are 'allowed'.. In fact, reading the NT gives me more a sort of feeling like.. ''Put faith in the Lord, not in those cards and divination practices.'' Putting faith in tarot cards is putting faith in something else, in cards.

I guess one can interpret the NT in many different ways.. which is what people do. Maybe those cards are a way to 'God'? Maybe those cards are about 'me' and I am 'God'.. etc.
