Hey Tom, sorry we assassinated your thread. Perhaps you should start another. |

I'm not here to recruit people to Paganism, but I find it to be much broader and with so much to learn. Including prayer, there are numerous skills that easily prove useful to a practitioner in daily life. |
I haven't said much on this topic, because I honestly don't know much about reincarnation. I do however know a lot about the Christian way of life. In the whole how to present an arguement, I have to side with Morph. In order to present a paper or debate about something, one typically does have to present both the pros and cons (also known as a comparison) - based soley alone on the fact that there may be some who aren't educated on either topic. Also, in doing so, you really allow the reader to make an educated opinion on the topic.
A couple of times I have read that people who believe in the "ascension" theory are just told that and they believe it. WRONG!!! I am a Christian and happy to say that I fully believe in the heaven and hell area of this conversation. I am going to Heaven. I wasn't told this and believed it, it has come with YEARS of learning and reading not only my Bible, but also multiple reference books, and seeking the counsel of those who are very educated on the topic. So, don't say that we who believe in this are just spoonfed and take it for fact. I do also have to say that the only way these two subjects compare is that there are some in both "practices" that hear the facts and take it as the gospel - and then there are others (like on this board) who are educated and seek the truth. That, my friends, is where the comparison ends!! |
If you side with ascension without even learning about reincarnation, then you kinda prove my point. I'm not going to accuse anyone of being a spoonfed Christian, though, but they are out there. You'd be amazed how many people brought up in Christian homes never even considered learning about another religion, be it Paganism, Buddhism, Muslim or any other world religion. I've known my fair share of Christians here in the South that not only have no interest in world religion, but consider having such topics in their presence highly offensive. I, myself, have almost been removed from households just for admitting that I'm a Pagan.
I am not generalizing by any means, mind you. We've all seen how intolerant Muslims can be as well and such lack of understanding, I think, is where the problem lies. If you have spent the hours you say you have on reading the understanding your path and it has led you to deeper belief, then you are where you should be, nuf said. Still, it doesn't hurt to take an interest in other religious practices. No one is asking you to convert, mind you, but having some knowledge brings about an aura of interest, empathy, and understanding that really helps fill the gap between people of different cultures. |
