“We are having a parish 'retreat' day with a priest who also is heavily involved with the Silva Mind Control Method. Can you point me to any Vatican documents which expressly state that the Silva Mind Control Method is New Age and therefore incompatible with our Catholic faith? I want some 'backup' from the Church, so I can voice my objections to the Parish Priest.”

Believe it or not, a Japanese plastic surgeon has developed a procedure in which he can alter the lines in a person's palm, thus ensuring all those believers in palmistry that their fate really is in their hands (or so they'd like to believe).

TA asks:
"Can you help me understand about dowsing to get a 'Yes' or 'No' answer from the Cross or the Rosary? I've learned how to do it in the past but don't feel right to use it any more."

“Can you please help me with information about Aztec dancing and whether it’s a concern. Our parish hosts a yearly feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe and our bishop comes every year to celebrate. Aztec dancers, some very immodestly dressed, would dance during the offertory and incense the image of Our Lady. I don’t feel that it’s appropriate that they participate at our Mass and I spoke to my pastor about it. Our pastor felt he needs more substantial information because the one that he sent me is in favor of the dancers. I personally don’t feel edified or pious when the Aztec dancers participate at mass because their dancing and music are distracting. Could you please help me with this? I have young and impressionable sons and I’m not sure I feel right having them see barely clothed people dancing in rather mesmerizing ways.”

“While researching books on St. Joan of Arc recently, I came across a volume called 'Joan of Arc at the Stake' written by Seeds & McMoneagle, the latter employed by the US military and known for 'consistent accuracy in psy-functioning known by the Intelligence & Security Command (INSCOM) as Controlled Remote Viewing.' The book purports to describe how Joan looked and how her military manuevers really happened, via 'Remote Viewing.'

Her husband noticed that we had a moon and the sun facing each other (made of clay . . .) hanging on the center of our shed in our back yard. He told me that it is bad. He told me a little bit about the portal. What else are portals? Today, father Ed was talking about portals, but it is not clear to me.”

MM asks:
"Is there any truth to the idea that some of us are "indigo children" who are born with special supernatural qualities? Some friends of mine are buying into this about their child, who has ADHD, and it just sounds so New Age to me."

"Our kindergarten son's music teacher plays a rap song where the boys are told to "hiss like a snake" and a song about fairies also. Our son refuses to participate in either song. He raised his hand and said that there are no such things as 'fairies' to which the class, the kindergarten teacher and the music teacher all agreed that there were fairies...Since then he has been teased and excluded and it's making him sad and angry. Do you have any info on fairies in the new age realm that we could pass on to the teachers about why we should not be chastised for NOT teaching our child about fairies?"
