Q: Doesn't the Church strictly forbid all this?
A: Actually, no. This isn't witchcraft, and it doesn't involve consorting with "other gods". However, Very Rev. Kevin Michael Quirk, JCD, knows much more about this aspect than I do, so I will refer you to his comments at http://www.dwc.org/questions/telepathy.shtml.
Q: Does the practice of psionics mean that my son/daughter has left the Church?
A: Again, the answer is no. Much like Math or Physics, Psionics in itself is basically irrelevant to Catholicism and vice versa. However, what a person _does_ with Psionic abilities ought to be governed by the same ethics and morals that govern the rest of his/her conduct, of course. It is a set of skills, and may be regarded as a tool. What is done with the tool is up to the person wielding it.
