People, whether or not they are religious, may condemn fortune tellers if they believe that fortune tellers are taking advantage of gullible people.
Religious people have two further concerns. If people can really tell fortunes without any help from the clergy, then the church loses control of our spirituality. Furthermore, if fortune tellers can not really tell fortunes they might still turn people away from the church.These are good reasons for the faithful to be warned to avoid fortune tellers, and to condemn fortune tellers.
