The "reincarnation" thing got you in trouble ~ there's a Bible verse that says 'men have but one life to live'. Your typical Christian is unfamiliar with the Eastern Concept called the Mandela, or Wheel of Life. There your life is but one on the wheel, but your manifestation in specific beings may take place numerous times.

This is a real dispute in Christianity though since so many people who are heirs to the Eastern Concept brought it with them into Christianity.

Some accept the idea's Biblical legitimacy by noting the "Dead in Christ' who rise up in Revelation to ask questions or to give hosannas.

Jesus himself rose from the dead.

There's certainly plenty of room for debate within the pale of Christian belief ~ but on the day to day plain it's not a big issue.

I think some confound satanism or devil worship with the other concepts in the East regarding the Demon Realm. I know Protestants have always gone hammer and tong after the Catholics over the "descended into Hell" business and over the centuries viewpoints on both sides of that particular coin have adjusted ~ and you rarely hear that issue raised anymore.

I'm trying to avoid being nonjudgmental. I have my own beliefs on these matters and they're pretty conventional. But you're not a satan worshipper for believing a soul might descend into Hell.

As I've stated several times right here some politicians, Nancy Pelosi is an example, have probably done enough evil they'll go straight to Hell ~ no purgatory ~ non stop ~ does not pass Go. Some suggest she can reform in the here and now but i doubt she can reform ~ none of us can tell if her reformation would count though.
