mistletoe,
Theme park fortune tellers are there to entertain. Nothing more or less. These days, predicting at least one divorce does not take any extraordinary powers...one just needs to know the statistics.

I do believe that there is wisdom available through psychic experiences, but not from theme park fortune tellers. I don't believe a belief in psychic phenomena has anything to do with whether one is Christian or non. But I know that some Christians believe it against their beliefs to believe in psychics

Nope, fortune telling is a load of nonsense.

Cheers,

perhaps they are a load of rubbish, but there're people out there who have seen fortune telling come true.
it doesn't matter if one is Christian or not

Hubby and I were disowned entirely after we got pregnant as teenagers. It hurt like crazy and was hard...especially around holidays, etc. But you know what, 16 years later I have a great family and my husband is still by my side.

After about 5 years, his parents realized we could care less and that they could just throw their tantrums without us. Eventually, they started to call and wanted to visit the kids here and there.

I made the right choice and I am sure you will also.
