On the tarot quiz
Shelly notes that there's nothing inherently sinful about the tarot quiz. I know I mentioned over at Karen's that I was going to sit this quiz out, but I just want to clarify a little bit.
Drinking coffee is licit, and some people are able to drink coffee without any problems. When I was younger, though, I drank waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much coffee and I developed a caffeine habit. I've since kicked that habit and switched to decaf. But if I drink "regular" coffee -- even in moderate amounts -- for more than two or three mornings in a row, I start getting headaches and jitters if I'm late getting the joe.
Same thing with the tarot quiz. When I was a fallen-away teenager, a friend of mine and I dabbled with horoscopes and tarot cards. I may never know in this life just how much damage I did to my soul. But I'm not going to risk making that damage even worse.
I don't think that the people who did take the quiz are on Screwtape's payroll, and I'm not scandalized by their having some fun with a silly internet quiz.
I appreciate the consideration of those who did not take the quiz because they wished to avoid giving scandal.
