Can you say with any certainty that she isn't born again? God has lifted up others from much lower depths.

II. ...False Professions.
A. Note: Matthew 7:20-23
1. You will know them by their fruits.
2. This is important: Jesus did not say that you would know them by their works!
3. Fruit is what develops from a persons character.
4. These folks had done many wonderful works in the name of Jesus, but they were not born-again!
B. Note: Titus 1:10-16
1. Paul is writing to Titus concerning the local church.
2. He said that are "many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers" Where? in the church!
3. They profess and deny.
a. profess with their mouths that they know God.
b. but in works they deny Him.
III. Evidence of a Genuine Salvation.
A. A Changed Life.
1. "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold all things are become new." 2 Co. 5:17
2. "Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son." Colossians 1:13
3. "But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth from all sin." 1 John 1:7
4. When a person gets saved, then their life ought to show it!
With a tip of the hat to the fine folks at www.brandonweb.com.
As for Jane Fonda? Only God knows for sure the state of her soul, however her new book which wallows in her past sexual immorality suggests that her focus is misguided, perhaps for the purpose of making a buck.
My .02, your mileage may vary.

Such that she can commune with the dead?
As a Vietnam Veteran if she sought solace from me, I'd give it to her. But her peace is not with me. She needs to seek it from those thousands on The Wall.
And then from God.
