Re: Powder Beads craft set (Dec. 26th question)	Linda	Tuesday, December 28, 2004
Question: Dear Brother; Thank you for answering so soon but I have a follow up question :) Maybe I didn't explain it too well, but the beads are plain wooden beads and you have to stick the stickers on them and string them together. Would it be alright to just use the beads but destroy the stickers with the symbols on them? If so how do I go about destroying them? Just rip up the stickers or would I have to burn them? Or do you think that my daughter shouldn't even play with the beads? I would throw out the papers and stickers so she wouldn't read anything about how these beads give you power. I know this is more than one question but please bear with me Brother. Thanks so much for your patience.
Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM Dear Linda: Well, since these beads seem to be from a doubtful source and are designed to be used in a doubtful way, I think it is better to get rid of them and replace them with the beads of the rosary. It is possible to have nasty things attached to these beads. Who knows? Better safe than sorry and besides, since rosary beads are also beads but beads you know from whence they come. To destroy these beads and stickers, or any doubtful item or occult item or the like, burn anything that will burn. The beads, or anything that will not burn tear apart or destroy as best as one can. Take the whole mess, bless it with holy water and bury it in the ground. God Bless, Bro. Ignatius Mary For information on how to receive help see our Help page.
