Americans Abandon Jesus for “Psychic”

Roxanne Usleman, self-proclaimed “psychic medium”, has seen her business boom in the last few months as people abandon God and His Laws and turn to her witchcraft instead of the Love of Jesus.

According to her own website, Roxanne is “Roxanne is a world-class Psychic, Metaphysician and Parapsychologist who has gained prominence because of the extraordinary accuracy of her psychic predictions. This includes private readings and global happenings. As a psychic consultant, her clients include businesses and professionals, people in the media, and major corporations. She is a psychic investigator and is sought-after to uncover previously unsolved crime cases and find missing persons.”

Oddly, her Testimonials page includes no comments from law enforcement agencies or people whose loved ones she has helped find.

Tell me, if you were a genuine “psychic”, wouldn’t that be the first thing you’d list? Something concrete, instead of nonsensical jabbering like Sandra Berhard’s utterly useless commentary, “Roxanne can see into other worlds – and we all need help…sometime.”

Huh?

Well, I have a question for Roxanne:

“Can Americans’ determination to turn their backs on God bring anything but greater disaster?”

Usleman says no. In fact, she insists that the recession will get worse and could become a depression. The housing market will also fail to improve in the near term, and people who’ve been laid off might have to start their own businesses if they want work.

Seems Roxanne’s read the paper this month. Good for her! But she claims that, as she clasps a visitor’s keys or other metal object, that she is given advice by “the angels”.

A review of Ms. Uselessman’s “talents” suggests that she’s not in touch with angels, demons, or anything other than a client’s money clip:

My many past lives as a French woman and someone with a strong musical connection come to her first. I tell her I don’t get to many shows and am not musical. She suggests I start: “Do as many musical interviews as possible. Be around musicians.” My life-mate will be around music and very smart, she hears: “They say you are not to get involved with any married men” — something I haven’t done in the past, and not good karma for anyone.

Later, Uselman begins to sense strong vibrations around me from the grandmother I never met. “She tells you not to be so stressed out, and massages your shoulders.” Worrying, she reminds me, shows that we don’t trust the universe.

Uh huh.

Deuteronomy 18:10 gives us God’s take on this business:

There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.

Were it not a violation of God’s Law, I’d be happy to rake in $135/hour to tell gullible fools who hate Jesus that everything will be OK, and not to blow all their money on things they don’t need in a down economy.

Course, Suze Orman does the same for free, in her books.

Regardless, people like failing businessman Bruce Levy flock to Uselessman’s door for her “valuable input”:

She helps me make better decisions. She is able to make me see things that I wouldn’t otherwise see. I just think that she has this intuition that gets through to my subconscious in a way that I can’t.

Seems that Mr. Levy, at least, is bright enough to recognize that she’s not talking to angels, but simply giving a different perspective.

Jesus can offer a perspective, too. Maybe Mr. Levy would like to meet Him?
