pilgrimshost is on a distinguished road
an excellent topic

This is a very interesting topic. you have some good points, well constructed but i have to argue it may have some problems.

Firstly nobody can use the holy bible,old or new testiments to support these types of theories because it would only be selective! the bible does have flaws i.e:the 'begats' as i call them. the 'adam to noah' begats for example. the bible has been 'twisted' in one way or another over the last 3000 years either by the jewish priesthood since esra or around the time of the adoption of the religion by the romans and the council of nieseen( spelling mistake known). And the bible can be used to support anything anybody wants it to, just look how many denominations there are quoting from the same verse telling a different meaning!

If reincarnation is true then what about the fact that there are more people alive today than there has been in history altogether. how many people have claimed to had been the same person in a past life. regretion also is a problem, as hypnotism is well known to generate false memories, alien abductions for exsample. To go back to the bible, it does say that man is only to live once then die once. and were does alien life fit in? because thats a whole other debate.

Though i do believe in a creator God (YHWH, as its translated from hebrew), i do have many answers that elude me from the truth.Can we even be sure we even have souls and spirits? It cant be proved they dont excist, but can they be proved to excist? I have a deep interest in this subject and understand that everything has to be taken into account, even if it cant be explained away and seems to be too far fetched.

This is my very first entry to this forum. i am only trying to add to the debate in order to find some sort of conclusion. so dont feel i am atempting to ruine a theory with my own preconsieved woffle. I hope it may have given another point of veiw atleast.
