If you will indulge me, let me start here. Do you believe that there is a creator? Is there a being that created the world and all that is in it?

I'm curious. If you worship yourselves then why the symbol? Where does Satan fit in all of it? I'm not attacking you. I just want to know.

I'm not trying to fire up the whole reincarnation quarrel again but check out what I found today online:

I thought this was interesting.

That is an interesting site, but it does not really support reincarnation if you look at the context and the history. If you want I will explain each reference in context.

The whole idea of reincarnation scares the living shit out of me. Let's be honest people, this world isn't fit to live in. Why would anyone wanna come back?

Amen theif! Good thing He says that it is given unto men one time to die! That one perplexed me for a while. Who would look forward to that?!

However, reincarnation does remind me of Father Guido Sarducci from Saturday Night Live: "Life is a job. You get $14.50 a day, but after you die, you have to pay for your sins. Stealing a hub cap is around $100. Masturbation is 35 cents (it doesn't seem like much, but it adds up). If there's money left when you subtract what you owe from what you've earned, you can go to heaven. If not, you have to go back to work. (Sort of like reincarnation -- many nuns are Mafia guys working it off.)"

This is some input to the whole reincarnatation ..... ok when we come here to Earth we come to learn about what ever it is that we have pre-chosen to learn...... and when we go back 'Home' we take back all of the lessons that we went through..... now this is where free will comes into play ... if we chose we may come back here for another incarnation of life ...... if we decided that our lessons were not to our satisfaction then it is our own choice to come back and try it all over again. You see our Spirit is separate from our bodies and it records everything even when we think our minds have perhaps forgotten...... does that make sence ?
