You might like to study a little Tibetan Buddhism,hot and cold hells,nagas,other dimensions.In Therevada and Mayana Buddhism there is a lot of scripture implying we're not the top sentient being e.g whos in charge of re-incarnation?

Admittedly they don't dwell on such issues I go to the local Buddhist temple each weekend they are the only faith other than Taoism which just makes intuitive sense where you are all the time openly told don't believe us proove it for yourself,their philosophy fear is no basis for a learning environment I agree with and most monks can turn a Preacher into a babbling backtracking fool.2600 years later they are only now starting to proove in qantum physics and chaos law Buddha's teachings,as a Christian I can tell you there not an outfit you'd prosetylise two without awesome knowledge to back you up.
