Charles A. Coulombe & Satanic holidays https://callmejorgebergoglio.blogspot.com/2021/07/charles-coulombe-satanic-holidays.html 

Haunted Places in America: A Guide to Spooked and Spooky Public Places in the United States (2004) - Charles A. Coulombe

Considering that Charles Coulombe: practices tarot card divinization at a theosophical lodge; attends Halloween parties sponsored by the Gnostic Society; likes The Gnostic Society of Los Angeles on social media; enjoys occult movies; channels the Amazing Criswell who he is also obsessed with; rubs shoulders with gnostics socially and gives them lectures on everything but Catholicism; all the while he is a Feeneyite religious brother who has a gnostic bishop serve on the board of the nonprofit corporation he co-founded for his religious order, we should look at Coulombe’s every move with suspicion. 
Charles Coulombe wrote a book, Haunted Places in America: A Guide to Spooked and Spooky Public Places in the United States. There are several peculiar items in it such as: the first quote in the book is from a Catholic occultist and the second from an Anglican priest; Coulombe feels “privileged” to go on a “ghost hunt” with psychics and parapsychologists where he uses “divining rods” and to boot he brings along his nephew — Guy; that those who go to haunted places and come away encountering something strange are one of the “lucky” ones; and Coulombe believes that hauntings are caused by souls, demons, or another race of beings. What really sticks out is the dates on which Coulombe wrote the Introduction and the Afterword and how he chose to write them.

In The Satanic Bible by Anton Szandor LaVey (born Howard Stanton Levey) in the section Religious Holidays writes, “After one’s own birthday, the two major Satanic holidays are Walpurgisnacht and Halloween (or All Hallows’ Eve).”

Considering that the Introduction and the Afterword are dated on two of the three major Satanic holidays and the only photo Charles Coulombe has posted of himself celebrating his birthday just happens to be at the [Annie] Besant Lodge, plus his history with the occult and gnostics, we have to conclude that something isn’t right with Coulombe spiritually or morally.  How much longer can Coulombe use excuses such as: it was only a coincidence; I was taken out of context; they are haters; or equivocate it away before Catholics wake up?

About six months ago Charles Coulombe made a public statement apologizing for his use of tarot cards.  

That's good of him. I like that Coulombe believes in fairies.

About six months ago Charles Coulombe made a public statement apologizing for his use of tarot cards. He admitted it was wrong, promised not to do it anymore, promised to go to confession, and promised to make amends for the scandal he caused.

Can you link to the apology?

Here. Scroll a couple of posts down and I posted the video in that page.

Frankly Yeti, in that video he sounded arrogant and acted like it was demeaning for him to apologize. It seems to me that he is insincere even though he admitted to doing these things. He seemed more annoyed at those who caught him than sorrow for the wrong he did. I’m all for forgiveness, but he strikes me as unrepentant. Someone should tell him that this isn’t fun and games and he should take this a bit more seriously.

Thanks. There are many more charges than the tarot reading. His apology seemed carefully demarcated, hence limited.
I am reliably told that occultism/satanism leaves "marks." In any event, I will take the apology at face value. Thanks again for providing it.

You're welcome. I am inclined to accept his words at face value, since I don't think most people would have it in them to make a public apology like that, accepting full responsibility for something they did wrong. I don't see why he would have made a video like that if he weren't sincere.
